Using Swype; Editing Text; Selecting Text - Samsung SCH-I200 User Manual

Using Swype

Instead of touching each key, use your finger to trace over
each letter of a word. For each word, place your finger on the
first letter and glide, without lifting, to the subsequent letters,
lifting on the last letter.
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.
