Panasonic Hand Writing (Touch Pad)

Drawing Characters or Figures

Simple characters and figures like signatures and arrows can be made by using the work surface of the touch pad, and can be saved to a file as a bitmap (.bmp) format. Positions on the work surface of the touch pad have corresponding positions in the Panasonic Hand Writing window. For example, a character or figure made in the top-left part of the work surface of the touch pad will be displayed in the top-left part of the Panasonic Hand Writing window.

CAUTION

To draw, an object with a rounded tip (e.g., a pen for tablets) can be used.

Do not use any of the following objects, as they may damage the work surface.

Objects with an extremely sharp tip, like screwdrivers and nails.

Objects that leave marks, like ball-point pens.

In the Hand Writing mode, an external mouse or trackball connected to the exter- nal keyboard/mouse port will not operate. Therefore, before switching over to the Hand Writing mode, remove the external device that is connected. If a switch is made to the Hand Writing mode without disconnecting the external device and the external device stops working, reconnect the device after quitting the Hand Writing mode. If the device still does not work, try restarting the computer.
