Standby view
The Standby view is displayed when W950 starts.
The Standby view acts as the starting point for
tasks performed on W950, it does this by linking to
the feature rich applications of the phone.
The Standby view is highly customizable, just
about every aspect of its appearance, content,
navigation methods and behaviour can be
changed.
Multitasking
It is possible to have several applications open on
W950 at any time. An open application can either
be closed using the back key or simply left open.
Selecting Task manager displays a list of open
applications. To return to an open application
select it from the Task manager or the Main menu.
Editing features to move text from one application
to another can be used.
Text input methods
There are four text entry methods:
Keypad prediction - keypad based predictive
text input.
Handwriting recognition - using the stylus to
write characters directly on the screen.
On-screen keyboard - a virtual keyboard that
can be launched from the status bar.
•Multitap - standard Multitap keypad input (only
available when Handwriting recognition or the
On-screen keyboard is active).
Keypad prediction
Keypad prediction allows words to be entered by a
single press of a key to input any of the letters
associated with that key. When using keypad
based predictive text input, the primary word sug

tional suggestions are presented in a pre-edit box
at the top of the screen.
Word suggestions and next word
suggestions
Word suggestions and next word suggestions are
optional text prediction functions that a user can
enable or disable for all input modes, independ

ently. As with keypad prediction, primary word sug-
gestions and next word suggestions are presented
where you are writing, with additional suggestions
presented in a pre-edit box at the top of the screen.
For the input methods of Handwriting recognition,
On-screen keyboard and Multitap, the functions of
word suggestions and next word suggestions are
complimentary. This means that when entering text
via one of these methods, you have the option to
select one of the suggested words displayed, or to
ignore them and continue entering text normally.
Additionally if you mistype or misspell a word using
one of these input methods, when the word sug

gestions functionality is enabled the pre-edit box
may also suggest closely matching words. These
words would either be from one of your selected
language dictionaries, from a word you may have
previously typed, or from items that you have
added to your 'My words' personal dictionary.
