uppercase and lowercase. All the sentences following
the characters ! ? ¿ ¡ and . are capitalised
automatically, unless you have disabled this option in
Control Panel Pen Input settings.
Note that the case of the letter depends on the alphabet
mode you have selected, not on how you write the letter
on the screen. You can write uppercase letters to produce
lowercase letters if the system recognises uppercase
writing more easily. Note also that you cannot select the
AB mode at the beginning of an auto-capitalised word.
Tip: See “Pen input settings” on page 35 for more
auto-capitalisation settings.
To write numbers, special characters or
handwriting gestures, tap for numbers and for
special characters. See figure 14 on how to enter
spaces, backspaces, etc.

To delete text, select the text by dragging the stylus

To teach the system your individual writing style,
select the Control panel application and Pen Input
Settings, then tap Training. Double-tap on a character
set (lowercase or uppercase letters, numbers, or special
characters) and select the individual character to be
trained. Tap Train. Draw the character in your own way
and tap OK. To change the writing style you have
taught the system, open the Draw character '%c'
dialog again, and tap Clear to remove the existing
style. Draw the new character and tap OK.
Train only the characters that the system has difficulty
recognising. If you try to train the system to recognize all
the characters, your device may run out of memory.
