I am so happy I could burst, I now have my very own Note 2 to match my Note 10.1 but what I still haven't fathomed out is how to insert spaces without using the space bar when using the handrwriting to text option.

Can anyone help?

In some of the videos I saw when people picked up the pen and took a small (1/2 second )pause in writing and then wrote with a space in between words, it registered a space in the recognized text. Not sure if that is how it works.


btw SO jealous of you right now!! congrats

Figured it out by checking the s-pen help section. You have to let it first recognize the word and then you can make a line from left to right to have it recognize the space.....

You are correct and it's documented in the s-pen help section....hopefully you'll be able to get your hands on one soon....

Thanks for the clarification! I appreciate it!

and I'll have one soon (hopefully), pre-ordered from AT&T yesterday, shipping on the 6th, and despite knowing that, I still refresh the "My Orders" page on AT&T.com in the hopes it will ship early :P
 
Nope, think i'm going to have to have a look at the manual as none of the above has worked for me. It's kind of putting a dampner on my two new toys!
 
I just use the space key above the handwriting space on the screen. It does work when you slide the s-pen from left to right but I find the space button to be faster.

You can also adjust the time it takes to recognize strokes so that it feels closer to regular writing. I reduced my wait time to 100ms and it just feels more natural to me

Post that don't instruct on how to do something doesn't help others- for those that don't know how to do this

  • Settings
  • Language/input
  • Click gear icon on Samsung keyboard
  • Handwriting
  • Recognition time (default is 300ms)
