Hi Cara,

 

Well, the colen works the same way.  Just put 2 periods one above the other
but you have to do it very quickly otherwise, only one will appear.

Hi Ron,

 

I think you're thinking of a semicolon.

 

I was looking for a colon which is two dots on top of each other as you
know. :)

 

I did figure out how to get this consistently now so thanks to you all for
help!

 

You rock!

 

Smiles,

 

Cara :)

Hi Cara,

 

If you tap the screen quickly and follow it quickly with a comma under it,
it works every time.  That's why I don't understand why the comma doesn't
work.

Okay Sieghard, do tell!

 

How on Earth did you get a colon? Each time I try, it gives me a period
right after I touch the screen the second time.

 

thanks,

 

Cara :)

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
