Customizable features include selections for how many letters to write before the word list appears, how many words to display in the list and where to display the pop-up list. RecoEcho, a Graffiti(R) enhancement, will allow users of the Graffiti recognition system to use the whole screen for text input and enable users to see what they are writing in ink. Currently, users of the Graffiti recognition system are limited to writing in an input panel area at the lower third of the screen.
