    Using the Jog Dial™ navigator
    Your CLIÉ handheld is equipped with a Jog Dial™
    navigator, which allows you to perform all major
    operations without the stylus. You can operate your
    CLIÉ handheld using the Jog Dial navigator with just
    one hand.
    The icon of any application that supports Jog Dial
    navigator operations is marked with the 
     Jog Dial
    navigator mark*.
    For applications not supporting the Jog Dial navigator operations, you can use
    the JogAssist function to enable Jog Dial navigator operations. For details, see
    “Changing the Jog Dial
    ™ navigator preferences” on page 159.
    *The World Alarm Clock icon and PhotoStand icon and CLIÉ Paint icon do
    not have the 
     mark, but supports the Jog Dial navigator operations.
    Rotating the Jog Dial navigator
    Rotate the Jog Dial navigator to select various items
    in succession or to select an application to start.
    The operations you can perform by rotating the Jog
    Dial navigator differ depending on the application
    you are using. For details, refer to the instructions for
    each application.
    Pressing the Jog Dial navigator
    Press the Jog Dial navigator to highlight the item
    selected by rotating the Jog Dial navigator, or to run
    the selected application.
    The operations you can perform by pressing the Jog
    Dial navigator differ depending on the application
    you are using. For details, refer to the instructions for
    each application.
    Rotating while holding down the Jog Dial navigator
    Some applications support operations executed by rotating and pressing the
    Jog Dial navigator. For details, refer to the instructions for each application.

    Using Graffiti® writing to enter data
    This section describes the procedures for creating letters, numbers,
    punctuation, and symbols, and teaches you some Graffiti
    ® tips and tricks.
    What is Graffiti writing?
    Most people find they can enter text quickly and accurately with only
    minutes of practice. Graffiti writing includes any character you can type on a
    standard keyboard. The Graffiti strokes closely resemble the upper case
    letters of the regular alphabet, which makes Graffiti writing easy to learn.
    There are four basic concepts for success with Graffiti writing:
    •If you draw the character shape exactly as shown in the Writing Graffiti
    alphabet table in this chapter, and as shown below, you can achieve 100%
    accuracy.
    •The heavy dot on each shape shows where to begin the stroke. Certain
    characters have similar shapes, but different beginning and end points.
    Always begin the stroke at the heavy dot (you should not create the heavy
    dot; it is only there to show you where to begin the stroke).
    •Most characters require only a single stroke. When you lift the stylus from
    the Graffiti writing area, your CLIÉ handheld recognizes and displays the
    text character immediately.
    To allow you to write an entire character with a single stroke, some
    Graffiti strokes are portions of the regular alphabet equivalents.
    •The Graffiti writing area is divided into two parts: one for writing the
    letters of the alphabet and one for writing numbers. The small marks at
    the top and bottom of the Graffiti writing area separate the two areas.
    Graffiti writing examples:
    A, B, C, D, and E

    Writing Graffiti letters
    1Tap where you want your text to go.
    Note
    You need to tap above the Graffiti writing area, and you must see a flashing cursor
    before you write the text.
    2Use the tables on the following pages to find the stroke
    shape for the letter you want to create. For example, the
    stroke shown below creates the letter “n.”
    Note
    There are two different stroke shapes available for some letters. For these letters,
    choose the one that’s easiest for you.
    As you will see later, you use the same shape to create both the upper
    case and lower case version of a letter.
    3Position the stylus in the left-hand side of the Graffiti writing
    area.
    4Start your stroke at the heavy dot and draw the stroke shape
    as it appears in the tables.
    5Lift the stylus from the screen at the end of the stroke shape.
    That is all there is to it. When you lift the stylus from the screen, your
    CLIÉ handheld recognizes your stroke immediately and prints the letter
    at the insertion point on the screen.
    As soon as you lift the stylus from the screen, you can begin the stroke for
    the next character you want to write.
    Lift stylus here
    Start stroke at heavy dot
    Position the stylus

    Entering data into your Sony CLIÉ Handheld
    Note
    You must begin the character strokes in the Graffiti writing area. If you do not
    make Graffiti strokes in the Graffiti writing area, your CLIÉ handheld does not
    recognize them as text characters.
    Tips
    •Accuracy improves when you write large characters. You should draw strokes that
    nearly fill the Graffiti writing area.
    •To delete characters, simply set the insertion point to the right of the character you
    want to delete and make the backspace stroke (a line from right to left) in the Graffiti
    writing area.
    •Write at natural speed. Writing too slowly can generate recognition errors.
    •Do not write on a slant. Vertical strokes should be parallel to the sides of the Graffiti
    writing area.
    •Press firmly.
    To display the Graffiti onscreen help
    Drag the stylus from the bottom of the writing area to the top of the screen. Graffiti
    Help opens a series of screens that show the complete Graffiti character set.

    To write capital letters
    Shift to caps and then you can make capital letters with the same stroke
    shapes as the basic alphabet characters.
    •To draw the first letter of a word as a capital letter
    Use the Caps Shift stroke 
     .
    To return to the lower case, use the Backspace stroke 
     .
    Note
    When you create a new sentence or a new record (by tapping New or a blank line),
    the first letter is automatically capitalized.
    •To enter only capital letters (Caps Lock)
    Use the Caps Lock stroke 
     .
    To return to the lower case, use the Caps Shift stroke 
     .
    Writing numbers
    Write the following Graffiti numbers on the right-hand side (numbers side)
    of the Graffiti writing area.

    Writing punctuation marks
    Make a single tap on the Graffiti writing area to activate Punctuation Shift.
    The next stroke you make anywhere in the Graffiti area (the letters or
    numbers side) creates a punctuation mark.

    Writing accented characters and non-English characters
    To create accented characters, draw the stroke normally used to create the
    letter, followed by an accent stroke. Graffiti writing then adds the accent to
    the letter.
    To enter “é,” for example, draw 
     and then .
    à è ì ò ùá é í ó ú  ´y
    â ê î ô ûã õ ñ
    ä ï ö ü ÿå
    To write non-English characters
    You can write the following characters without any special punctuation or
    shifting:
    çæ
    Note
    You must write these non-English characters on the left side of the Graffiti writing area.

    Using Navigation strokes
    In addition to character symbols, Graffiti writing includes special strokes
    that you can use to navigate within text or fields in your applications.
    Move cursor right
    Move cursor left
    Go to the previous field (Address Book only)
    Go to the next field (Address Book only)
    Open Address Record (Address Book only)
    Using Graffiti ShortCuts
    Graffiti ShortCuts, similar to the glossary or autotext features of some word
    processors, allow you to enter commonly used words or phrases quickly and
    easily. In addition to the following predefined ShortCuts, you can create
    your own ShortCuts for your name or the header of a memo (page 170).
    Each ShortCut can represent up to 45 characters.
    To use a ShortCut, draw the ShortCut stroke 
     followed by the ShortCut
    characters. When you draw the ShortCut stroke, the ShortCut symbol
    appears at the insertion point to show that you are in ShortCut mode.
    When you enter 
     and dts (,  , and ), you can enter date and time
    stamps.
    Date stamp ds Breakfast br
    Time stamp ts Lunch lu
    Date/time stamps dts Dinner di
