Input methods
Your Toshiba phone enables you to enter
information in three different ways:
• Typing - Using the Input Panel.
• Writing - Using the stylus, writing directly on the
screen.
• Drawing - Using the stylus, drawing directly on
the screen.
The Input Panel provides various input methods,
including Block Recognizer, Keyboard, Letter
Recognizer and Transcriber.
The Input Panel icon is displayed on the command
bar when text input is possible.
To open the Input Panel, tap the Input Panel icon.
You can then tap the arrow beside the icon to select
other input methods.
When you begin entering a word using any of the
input methods except Transcriber, your Toshiba
phone will suggest possible words. Tap on one of
the suggested words to enter it.
Your Toshiba phone will learn words as you use
them. They will then be used as suggested words in
the future.
Block Recognizer
With Block Recognizer, you use a single stroke to
write individual letters, numbers and punctuation,
which are then converted into typed text.
To use Block Recognizer, tap the Input Panel
selector arrow, then tap Block Recognizer.
The handwriting area is divided into two designated
parts: abc and 123.
Write characters, numbers, symbols and
punctuation in the separate areas:
• Write in the abc area to enter lower case letters.
• Write in the 123 area to enter numbers.
• Tap the button in the bottom right corner labelled
‘@$*’ to open the table of symbols and
punctuation.
NOTE: Block Recognizer is available when
text entry is possible.
