This example shows how to enter the word "this". Put your finger
down on the "t", and without lifting, glide it to the "h", then to the
"i" then over to the "s".
Here are a few tips to get you started:
Spacing is automatic: When you finish a word, just lift your finger and
•
start the next word.
•
Double letters: Just "scribble" on the key.
Capitalization: Swype recognizes and capitalizes the first word of
•
sentences. If you want to capitalize a word that isn't at the beginning
of a sentence, just glide above the keyboard before gliding over the
next letter.
Contractions: Swype recognizes most words that include an
•
apostrophe; just swype the letters of the word, including the
apostrophe.
Punctuation: Tap and hold a key to view a punctuation menu and
•
make a selection.
Accented characters: Just glide through the letters of the word.
•
Swype usually recognizes the word and correctly accents the letters.
Error correction: If you make a mistake, double-tap on the word you
•
want to change.
