Data Input
Writing, Drawing, and Editing 6-9
■ Editing Let users edit text—select, delete, copy-and-paste, duplicate,
and move.
■ Formatting Let users format individual words and characters in several
different fonts, styles, and sizes.
Where there is space to write paragraphs of text (not just single lines), the
text input elements also have these capabilities:
■ Word wrap Re-form lines of text as a user writes additional words,
adjusting spaces between words and wrapping words from the end of a
full line to the beginning of the next line without breaking in the middle of
the word.
■ Paragraph resizing Automatically lengthen or shorten a paragraph as a
user adds or deletes words from it, and allow a user to select and
manually resize paragraphs.
■ Side-by-side paragraphs Create a new paragraph alongside an existing
one when a user writes words far away from the existing paragraph.
Almost all of these capabilities apply both to recognized text and to ink text.
The exception: Users cannot correct ink text, since it has not been recognized.
(Users can edit ink text, however.)
