Using gestures
A gesture is a shape you draw with your digital pen to send a command to your
tablet PC Input Panel. You can also use gestures to control the insertion point in the
active program. When you use these gestures, you get the same result as pressing
the corresponding key on a standard keyboard.

You will find more information about gestures and gesture symbols, as well as
handwriting tips, in the TIP help. For more information, see
Panel (TIP)" on page 16.
Hold the digital pen the same way you hold a writing pen, and steady your
writing hand by resting it on the display surface.
Line up the pointer with the object on the screen before you tap, in cases where
the pointer and digital pen point are out of alignment. The screen reads the
position of the pointer, not the tap.
Store the digital pen in the tablet PC's pen holder. Store extra pens in a drawer
to avoid prolonged pressure on the pen tip.
The digital pen has internal electronics, so keep it dry and avoid contact with
liquids.
