Using Graffiti ShortCuts

Graffiti ShortCuts, similar to the glossary or autotext features of some word processors, allow you to enter commonly used words or phrases quickly and easily. In addition to the following predefined ShortCuts, you can create your own ShortCuts for your name or the header of a memo (page 171). Each ShortCut can represent up to 45 characters.

To use a ShortCut, draw the ShortCut stroke followed by the ShortCut characters. When you draw the ShortCut stroke, the ShortCut symbol appears at the insertion point to show that you are in ShortCut mode. When you enter and dts (, , and ), you can enter date and time stamps.
