Placing a Cursor

You can also simply place a cursor on the screen and move it around to do

manual text editing, such as backspace to delete letters or manually insert a

new word. To do this, tap on the screen in the text area. A single blue marker

displays; drag that marker to the point in the text you want to make changes to.

Now start typing or tap backspace, and the action occurs at the cursor position.

Writing Instead of Typing

As discussed earlier in this chapter, your Galaxy Note II comes with the S Pen

stylus. Instead of typing on the keyboard, you can use handwriting recognition

to write. To enable Handwriting mode, pull out the S Pen from its holder and

then touch and hold the Microphone button. Touch the Handwriting icon to

enable Handwriting mode. Now write on the screen.
