Inserting New Text 6

When a caret is displayed in an input area, it marks the point where the

Newton system will insert newly written words. No matter where a user

writes in the input area, the Newton system inserts the text at the caret. It

doesn’t matter whether the system is set for text recognition or ink text.

Figure 6-23 illustrates the caret.
