Palm Tungsten T5 manual Using the Command stroke, Using the Command toolbar

CHAPTER 3 Moving Around in Applications

Tip

Command mode is active for just a few seconds, so write the menu shortcut or tap an icon on the Command toolbar quickly.

Using the Command stroke

Most menu items also have a menu shortcut, which is similar to the keyboard shortcuts used on computers. The menu shortcut appears to the right of the menu item.

To use a menu shortcut, first write the Graffiti 2 Command stroke on the left side of the input area or the full screen, and then write the shortcut letter. For example, to select Paste from the Edit menu, write the Command stroke, followed by the letter p. You do not have to open a menu to use the command stroke.

The Command toolbar displays different icons based on the active screen. For example, if you have text selected, the icons might be Cut, Copy, and Paste. If no text is selected, the icons might be Beam, Undo, and Delete.

To use the Command toolbar, write the Command stroke to display the Command toolbar, and then tap an icon to select its command.
