Checkbox
Checkboxes are found in several places in the MessagePad
and can be used in different ways. Checkboxes are used to
identify completed items or tasks in the Checklist stationery
in the Notepad and the To Do List in the Date Book. In the
overview of some applications, you can use checkboxes to
select multiple items for routing or filing.
Close box X
You can leave or close any application or slip by tapping
the X in the lower-right corner. This is called the close box.
If you get lost, tap every close box you see until the Notepad
on the screen.
Preferences π
There are two types of preferences—global and local. Global
preferences affect your MessagePad and all applications in
general, such as sound effects and styles. For more
information on these, see the section “Prefs” in the chapter
“Managing and Using Items in the Extras Drawer.” Local
preferences relate only to a particular application. For more
information, see the chapter for an application.

Learning the Basics
Routing button µ
The Routing button allows you to route, or send items.
Every item in the Notepad, Name File, and Date Book has
this button. You can use the Routing button to print, fax,
beam, or mail the item. You can also use this button to
delete or duplicate an item.
Information button ;
The Information button provides immediate access to the
on-screen help and preferences related to the application
you are viewing.
Recognition button Ú
This button controls the way your MessagePad recognizes
your writing and drawing and allows you to set your
handwriting preferences. You use this control to have your
handwriting recognized as text or leave it as “electronic ink,”
or ink text. You also use this control to smooth the lines and
curves in your drawings, or leave them as they are.
Keyboard button _
The Keyboard button displays an on-screen keyboard that
you can use to enter information. The default keyboard
is Typewriter, but several other keyboards are also
available–Numeric, Phone, and Time/Date. To use
another keyboard, tap the Keyboard button while the
on-screen keyboard is displayed and in the list that appears,
tap your choice.
New button
The New button allows you to create something new such as
a new note, name card, or meeting.
