I sent you a email previously saying that I can't do a full stop in the hand
writing mode but I have now worked out how to do it. I'm the same I can't
work out how to do a coma. I can do a lot of the other symbols. I have
worked out how to do a dash. What I do is to draw a very small line across
the screen and this seems to work. 

 

I am enjoying playing around with the hand writing mode.

Subject: Handwriting - how to get a comma

 

Hello,

 

I am quite intriqued by the new handwriting feature and have been practicing
a bit. I have a feeling that if a person knows how to write which I do since
I lost my sight at the age of almost 17, this could become a rather
efficient method of text input. I actually don't understand why Apple does
not make this available to all iPhone users instead of restricting it to
Voiceover users.

They could have made Handwriting a keyboard choice so to speak. This way if
you added the "Handwriting" keyboard to your list of keyboards, one could
have simply tapped on the keyboard button at the bottom to switch to it, but
maybe they have their reasons.

 

Anyhow, I would like to know if somebody has figured out how to best insert
a comma. I know of course I have to switch to the punctuation area and I
have managed to figure out how to do most commonly used symbols like a
period, semicolon, colon, question mark, exclamation mark, Dollar sign, @
symbol, underscore etc.

 

I am still having a bit of trouble with a dash, if you draw a horizontal
line across it always interprets it as an underscore.

 

I don't think I managed to get a comma done more than once and I have no
idea how I did it. If I simply draw a line down the screen it inserts this
as a "vertical line", if I give the line a bit of a curve it usually inserts
a right parenthesis. Any explanations are appreciated.

 

Best regards,

Sieghard
