2.3 Writing on the Screen

Knowing your pocket PC

In any program that accepts writing, such as the Notes program, and in the Notes tab in Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks, you can use your stylus to write directly on the screen. Write the way you do on paper. You can edit and format what you have written and convert the information to text at a later time.

Tap the pen button to switch to writing mode. This action displays lines on the screen to help you write.

Some programs that accept writing may not have the pen button. See the documentation for that program to find out how to switch to writing mode.

Selecting Writing

If you want to edit or format writing, you must select it first.

1 Tap the button again to exit writing mode. This helps to select the writing text more easier.

2Tap and hold the stylus next to the text you want to select until the insertion point appears.

3Without lifting, drag the stylus across the text you want to select.

If you accidentally write on the screen, tap Edit, then Undo and try again.

You can cut, copy, and paste written text in the same way you work with typed text: tap and hold the selected words and then tap an editing command on the pop up menu, or tap the command on the Edit menu.

Tap the Pen button and

use your stylus like a pen.
