 Chapter 05: Using Your Sahara Slate PC with Windows Vista
Handwriting Recognition
A unique function of Windows Vista is its ability to learn your
handwriting style. If you are going to be the primary user of your
Sahara Slate PC, then enabling the “Use the personalized
recognizer” option will allow Vista to improve it’s ability to
accurately convert your handwriting to text from data collected
during training sessions
with the “handwriting
recognizer” (see later in this
chapter under Improving
Hand Writing Recognition
for more information).
Along with the personal
recognizer, Vista can also
learn on the fly as you input
information on a continual
basis. Enabling the option
to “Use automatic learning”
lets Vista collect information
about how and what you
write in order to improve its
accuracy.
If the Sahara Slate PC is going to be operated by a number of
different people utilizing the same user profile, then leaving
these personalization options off will allow Vista to using its
generic handwriting recognition abilities.
Entering Text with the Input Panels
Complementing Microsoft’s Digital Inking handwriting
recognition technology, Windows Vista features input pads that
accept and convert handwriting to text, as well as provide a
compact and convenient on-screen keyboard.
Tap the edge of the input panel docked on the left side of the
screen to display the on-screen keyboard and writing pads.
