The Recognizer picker lists the type of recognition options that are appropriate
for the type of input users can make. If users can only write text, the recognizer
should only include text-recognition options—Text and Ink Text. If users can
only draw shapes, the recognizer should only include shapes-recognition
options—Shapes and Sketches. The Recognizer picker should include all
recognition options if users can write text and draw shapes.
The last item in the Recognizer picker is always Preferences. Selecting it
gives users quick access to the handwriting recognition section of the built-in
Preferences application.
The Recognizer picker usually pops up from a Recognizer button on the left
side of the status bar (next to the Info button). In addition, users may need to
control recognition separately in slips. The Recognizer picker should also
pop up from a Recognizer button in the lower left corner of a slip that allows
users to input text or shapes if that slip covers the status bar and can’t be
moved out of the way. A slip should also contain its own recognition control
if it allows both text and shape input but the Recognizer picker on the status
bar only offers text-recognition options. Figure 6-15 shows a shows a slip
with its own recognition control.
