Abstract
An apparatus for handwriting recognition has a display screen providing a handwriting input area capable of detecting input from a user. A processing device is coupled to the display screen and provides a handwriting user interface to the user. The handwriting user interface is operable in at least a first mode and a second mode. A control panel in the handwriting user interface allows selection of said first or second mode. The processing device is adapted to receive an input from the user and to detect, in the input received from the user, a control panel invoking command. In response to detecting the control panel invoking command, the control panel is presented on the display screen. Then, in response to a predetermined event, the control panel is automatically removed from presentation on the display screen, therefore only occupying display space when really needed.
