Graffiti ShortCuts
Graffiti’s ShortCuts make entering commonly used words or phrases quick
and easy. ShortCuts are similar to the Glossary or Autotext features of some
word processors.
Graffiti comes with several predefined ShortCuts, and you can also create
your own. Each ShortCut can represent up to 45 characters. For example, you
might create a ShortCut for your name, or for the header of a memo. See
“ShortCuts Preferences” in the pdQ Applications Handbook to learn about
creating your own ShortCuts.
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.
pdQ smartphone includes the following predefined Graffiti shortcuts:
