This appears to make it impossible to enter text into the application with Graffiti. This problem is known to happen in several applications that support floating windows. Solution Double-tap in a text field on the floating application and Graffiti should appear in front of the application. Removing a Storage Card While Graffiti Is Running ------------------------------------------------- Problem If the main Graffiti application is running from a storage card, removing the storage card will result in unpredictable behavior. You may have to reset your Newton to recover. Solution If you run Graffiti from the storage card, always close it before removing the storage card. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Documentation Changes =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- The following is a list of documentation changes the Graffiti User's Guide was printed.
