Toolbar
Special signs
The built in special characters helps to find words that are difficult to spell. You can use the special character “*” by tapping it from the toolbar.
* Stands for one or more characters.
If you for example only know that the word “interested” starts with “in” and end with “d” you can write “in * d”, and then the predictive text automatically find all words that start with “in” and ends on “d”.
You can also make use of the special character “?” – This is not in the toolbar, but have to be written with the keyboard in AppWriter.
? stands for one character.
If, for example, you want to write “car”, but do not know if it starts with “k” or “c”, you can use the ? Character as you type “?ar”, and then the program will find all words containing an initial letter followed by “ar”.
