Abstract

A novel cuing feature in a handheld computer device having a handwriting recognition (HWR) input device and a display is disclosed. The handheld computer device provides text-editing functions to a user, who can enter or edit a character at a text cursor position on the display using the HWR input device. If the user selects a character mode before entering or editing a character, a cue sets off to indicate such a selection while allowing the user to continue focusing at the text cursor position. Known examples of character modes are the Shift, Caps Lock and Num Lock.
