Thanks its great , makes me remember my palm
I'm trying Graffiti but I can't write the "@". Can anyone help me? I can't find the correct stroke.
Ok, I got the answer from the tech support. Here it is:
You can make the @ symbol by a dot (short tap) followed by O. The symbol is on the third help screen, top row, 9th entry.
They are right, of course. On the x10 mini screen it was very difficult to see...

Hello Folks,
I love my Flyer and I don't want to miss it anymore. There's just a single thing which annoys me pretty much. I'm using the build in notice app much, but JUST with the pen, I never use the keyboard. So somestime, rarely but sometimes the Keyboard pops up and it's a little bit annoying. So I wanted to ask if it is somehow possible to "lock" the keyboard, like.. an App which scanns the App on the current device, setting up for the single Apps if the keyboard should be available or not.
Best Regards
Deen Precious
From someone elsewhere on the Internet, I've forgotten who, I found this hint: put the thumb of your non-writing hand on the edge of the screen, where the rings or the edge of the "paper" is, and hold it there. As long as your thumb is depressed, your writing hand will not open the keyboard.
Does anyone on planet earth have a clue as to how Samsung predictive Text works? I haven't had a phone with such good grammar correction...well, since....ever.
But i also event had a phone which couldn't learn my words abduction then recommend them...well, since ever.
Also, what's this sliding keyboard nonsense? I understand your supposed to be able to slide your finger over the number qualifier on the keyboard, keep your finger pressed, and then slide to a number and let go...typing the number you let go on and switching back to the letter keyboard automatically (sorry...this is the best i could do in explaining how i thought it was supposed to work.
But it doesnt work.
What the heck? The keyboard just replaced heck with neck...btw. It even worse at memorizing acronyms like lol and btw.
Who has a few dark secrets or pointers they're willing to share with me.
Its such a pleasure to type on the none. And the keyboard design is great...or at least...it sucks the least when compared to the tiny letters on the default android keyboard.
Is there a pill for my woes? Or do i have to choose between terrible T9 and a third-party keyboard that performance is terrible on. Okay...maybe they're not all terrible (3rd party KBs)...but I've yet to see a single keyboard that didn't drop a few frames here and there and that performed as well as a stock one on either my note or transformer.
Just downloaded the Access Graffiti app yesterday. It is just like the Palm Graffiti from the old days. It's pretty awesome with the Note since we have a Stylus... er... S-Pen.
Anybody else use the app?
Q:
Any idea how to click "enter" when trying to submit a search?
Q:
I wish there was a way to do on the fly switching between keyboard and Graffiti. Perhaps this exists and I'm just missing it [?]. [it would be amazing if there was a way to default to keyboard unless the stylus was removed - but as far as I know the phone doesn't sense the presence of the stylus].
The phone does sense the spen.
Put the tip of the pen close to the screen but not touching and you will notice it keeps the screen from turning off

It doesn't sense when the S-Pen is removed - If I had one major gripe, I'd say that is it. It would be nice to have the screen turn on the moment you remove the S-Pen.
Hey man, I just downloaded the Graffiti for Android. It's actually pretty awesome. Now I just need to memorize the keys... I don't know if figured it out already but I have an answer from your first questions.
"Q: Any idea how to click "enter" when trying to submit a search?"
If you tap and drag from the top right diagonally to bottom left it is the command for "return". Actually you can see all the commands if you swype up. A little window will show up and you can cycle through the box of commands by tapping.
I love this Graffiti app!
I am becoming increasingly frustrated with the Gesture Input in particular. Strike rate for arriving at intended word is perhaps 50%. More annoyingly once an incorrect(or any) word is entered, the system always deselects the suggested word and adds a space. Therefore you have to backspace numerous characters to correct it. And yes, I have unchecked "Automatic space" under Symbols & smileys.
Whereas on my Nexus 5x the strike rate for correct word is nearer 90% AND if an unintended word does get entered it is only ever a single press of the backspace key to clear it and start again. ie the entered word remains selected until the next action occurs and no following space is entered until then. Much better arrangement in my opinion.
For now I have disabled Gesture input as it is not working satisfactorily for me on this small Z5c screen. Frustrating because quick and simple text input is a key usability feature for me. If I get frustrated with the keboard every day I will get sick of the handset very soon. Made worse for me because the Nexus 5x I have been evaluating does such a terrific job of it, accentuating the shortcomings of the Xperia keyboard on the Compact.
Does everyone find the Xperia Keyboard satisfactory in the Compact phone footprint?
I'm having a similar issue. I'm use to using the CyanogenMod keyboard from my old rom with its own gestures. The other nice thing is that it has the symbols on the keys like the xperia keyboard where the google one doesnt for some reason.
Mine's working fine. Infact it has even picked up the Bangla words that I've used so far and so this is making one handed typing extremely easy for me. Well I have been using the xperia keyboard for like 3 years at a stretch now and maybe that's why I'm so used to it
I have been using this keyboard for about a month and still have not gotten use to it. The gesture swiping is only correct maybe 25% of the time at most. I've resorted to just typing more often now. I'd switch to the google keyboard but it lacks symbols on they keys.

Click to collapse
With the Google keyboard you can hold down the symbol button and the symbols will appear on their respective keys. Then you can slide over to the symbol you want.

yeah, I know I can do that, but I'm use to holding down the key. I have to be somewhat precise with the sliding to the correct button so its easy to be off by one. I suppose I have the same risk just pressing and holding but I figure its easier to be precise when pressing a button directly vs stopping a slide.
Hi all,
I have an issue with the "right click" on the halo keyboard. Before I have chatted with fb support from Lenovo.
Their solutions were: 1) try with the rectangles on the side from the touch pad on halo keyboard (picture). My answer: I don't have rectangles, just 5 dots (picture)
2) You see the five dots below the space bar? the dots in the middle is for you to scroll up and down, left and right. You will start movie from the middle then move towards where you want to scroll. The two dots on the left and right are for the click. Try it. My answer: I'am trying to correct a word wich was misspelled using the option "right click" on it. But following these steps, seems like doesn't work
Now you know what I have tried. Is there an option a I didn't see or try it before? any hotkey? or crtl+? lol
Thank you!
Last update from Lenovo:
Sorry about that. Windows does have the left and the right click, however the android version does have the scroll only. You could try holding the option from the screen then see if you will get options popped up.
My answer: **** I would like to ask to someone from the IT (I don't know if this is the way to do it).
It is very important when you write or efit not to switch from one to another.
Is like having a mouse and the touch pad, to do certains things you have to switch from one to another.
It is ok, there is solution for the issue. But it is not correct, there is a correct way on windows, but need to be also on this kind of device too.
Please if its not here to elevate this complaint/ask, tell me where to.
Thank you
Sorry for your lost time reading this, but might help someone else with this issue
