Page 28 Entering Data in Your Palm IIIc™ Organizer
Most characters require only a single stroke. When you l ift the
stylus from the Graffiti writing area , your organizer recognizes
and displays the text character immediately. To accompli sh single
strokes, some Graffiti strokes are porti ons of the regular alphabet
equivalents.
The Graffiti writin g area is divided into two parts: one for writ ing
the letters of the alphabet and one for writing numbers. The small
marks at the top and bottom of the Graffiti writing area i ndicate the
two areas.
To write Graffiti letters:
1. Tap the screen where you want your text to go.
Note: You need to tap above the Graffiti writing area, and must
see a blinking cursor before you write the text.
2. Use the tables on the following pages to find the stroke shape for
the letter you want to create. For example, the stroke shown below
creates the letter “n.”
Note: There are two different stroke shapes available for some
letters. For these letters, choose the one that’s easiest for
you.
As you’ll see later, you use the same shape to create bo th the
uppercase and lowercase version of a letter.
3. Position the stylus in the left-hand sid e of t he Gra ffiti wr itin g ar ea.
