Note to text word break (spen) ?

Android Expert
I was playing with the spen handing writing to text option and one issue I have is that I can't seem to generate word break very well. I'm curious if others have found an effective way to use this feature and if so can provide suggesetions for easy flow of text (both word and line breaks) without clicking (moving the spen to the control bar at the top) which breaks the flow.

also is there a way to do voice to text on a note ?
 
Have you tried the "L" motion with the pen? You draw a uppercase "L" but with it rotated top to the left by 90 degrees, so it looks like a uppercase "L" laying down on it's left side. That gesture when done, signals the end of a sentence or end of the line if you do two in a row.
 
Try setting the Handwriting Recognition Type to Complete Recognition. It will recognize words and add the spaces for you.
 
Now why would they hide a hand-writing option under keyboard? I wonder if this setting still works if you use a different keyboard.

Weird that doesn't work when using an S-note style sheet. It only seems to work when using a note. Is there a way to dictate to text (voice to text) ?

More weird there is no way to bring a 'pop-up' note via an icon; you have to insert the pen and remove again to get a pop up note :(
