Using Graffiti writing to enter data

Capital letters

You make capital letters with the same stroke shapes as the basic alphabet

characters. You must first “shift” to caps—just as you press the Shift key on a

keyboard—and then write the character strokes.

Graffiti writing includes a feature that automatically capitalizes the first letter

when you create a new sentence or a new record (by tapping New or a blank line).

To draw the first letter of a word as a capital letter:

■ Enter the Caps Shift stroke:

TIP When Caps Shift is active, an up arrow symbol appears in the lower-right

corner of the handheld screen. If you accidentally activate Caps Shift,

backspace will cancel it.

To enter only capital letters (Caps Lock):

■ Enter the Caps Lock stroke:

TIP When Caps Lock is active, an underlined up arrow symbol appears in the

lower-right corner of the handheld screen. To return to lowercase, make the

Caps Shift stroke.

Graffiti numbers

Writing numbers with Graffiti writing is similar to writing letters of the alphabet,

except that you make the character strokes on the right side (numbers side) of the

Graffiti writing area.
