+--- Thread: If I handwrite a chord symbol, can I convert it to formal typeface? (/thread-12711.html)
If I handwrite a chord symbol, can I convert it to formal typeface? - tlevine - 01-12-2025
In a demo video for a Boox tablet, they showed someone handwriting a word with the "pencil", then converting it from handwriting into formal typeface.
Can mobilesheets do this if I initially handwrite chord symbols with its pencil tool?

MobileSheets itself will not do that conversion, but many Android tablets support an option to draw on a field on the screen to automatically convert that drawing to text. I can do this on my Samsung tablets, for instance. I'll have to check whether the BOOX supports the same thing. The area you would draw into is generally where the virtual keyboard is displayed.

It even understood my diminished symbol.

Not Mike, but you won't find anything there because it isn't a MobileSheets function but rather a feature of the hardware/tablet (or a special software) and therefore in its own manual.
