or when you want to use the button bar functions.
handwriting
You can use the stylus as a pen to write letters,
numbers, and punctuation directly on the screen.
In a text entry window,
tap the entry method
drop-down menu and
tap Handwriting to open the
handwriting pad. Tap a
button on the handwriting pad to select Chinese
characters, English text, or numbers as the type
of text you want to enter.
Use the stylus to write in one of the two writing
spaces. For best performance, alternate between
the writing spaces so that recognition can occur in
one while you are writing in the other.
Write a text character, then wait for your phone to
recognize and place it in the text entry window. If your
phone places an incorrect character, tap the character
in the choice area that you want to replace it.
