Symbol Technologies SPT 1700 - Manual (Page 97)

3-21
Working with Your SPT 1700 Terminal
The menus and menu commands available depend on the application currently running on
your SPT 1700 terminal, and vary depending on which part of the application is currently
on the screen. Using the Memo Pad application as an example, the menus are different for
the Memo List screen and the Memo screen.
Graffiti Menu Commands
Most menu commands have Graffiti “Command stroke” equivalents — similar to keyboard
commands on computers. The command letters display on the right side of the menu
commands.
To use the Graffiti menu commands, draw the Command stroke followed by the
corresponding command letter. When you draw the Command stroke, the Command
symbol displays just above the Graffiti writing area to indicate that you are in Command
mode.
For example, to activate the Select All command in the previous diagram, draw the
Command stroke, followed by the letter “s.”
Note: You do not have to tap the icon or access the menus when you
use the Graffiti menu commands. However, since the Command
mode is active for approximately two seconds, you must write the
letter character immediately to activate the menu command.
Edit Menu Commands
The Edit menu is available with any screen where you enter or edit text. In general, the Edit
Menu commands available in the Edit menu apply to text that you select in an application.
To select text in an application:
1. Tap the beginning of the text that you want to select.
2. Drag the stylus over the text to highlight it (in black).
Note: You can drag across the text to select additional words, or drag
down to select a group of lines.
