Drawing on the Screen

You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen. The difference between writing

and drawing on the screen is how you select items and how they can be edited. For example, selected

drawings can be resized, while writing cannot.

To create a drawing:

Cross three ruled lines on your first stroke. A drawing box appears. Subsequent strokes in or touching

the drawing box become part of the drawing. Drawings that do not cross three ruled lines will be
treated as writing.

NOTE: You may want to change the zoom level so that you can more easily work on or view your

drawing. Tap Tools and then a zoom level.

To select a drawing:

If you want to edit or format a drawing, you must select it first.

Tap and hold the stylus on the drawing until the selection handle appears. To select multiple drawings,

deselect the Pen button and then drag to select the drawings you want.

You can cut, copy, and paste selected drawings by tapping and holding the selected drawing and then

choosing the appropriate command on the pop-up menu. Alternatively, choose the command from the Edit

menu. To resize a drawing, make sure the Pen button is not selected, and drag a selection handle.

NOTE: For more detailed information about the Notes application, please see “Notes: Capturing

Thoughts and Ideas,” on Page 50.

Support for clip-on keyboards

You may be able to attach a snap-on keyboard to your PiN (see your PiN manufacturer for supported

keyboards for your PiN). Snap-on keyboards allow you to enter text on a physical keyboard, and allows you

to use number of standard keyboard shortcut commands, such as CTRL+C, copy; CTRL+Z, undo; CTRL+V,

paste; etc. Additionally, most Pocket PC applications now support keyboard mnemonics, meaning you may

be able to access menu items without using the stylus on the screen.
