Maybe get in touch with the MSCIM google developer and integrate the two? right now the MSCIM have the nasty bug of removing the english keyboard & predictive input.

I wish I know how to use stroke order. My chinese has been going down hill - I forgot how to write most of the words so pinyin is the only option for me.

Otherwise a great product! very polished for such an early version

can we get english handwriting input then??

Hey guys,

could someone please tell me how the input works on the N900? Btw: My virtual keyboard vanished when I installed Google Pinyin SCIM, and never reappeared.

Thanks!

f2thak & Irving,

This input method is an independent app and is not related to SCIM / MSCIM input method engine.

Penpower handwriting recognition offered in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan stocks does support English handwriting; however, that input method is based on the MSCIM engine and the known side-effect of installing such engine is that the virtual keyboard will no longer work.

The penpower chinese handwriting input app also allows inputting of alphanumerics and other symbols via handwriting. If you want to install it and your N900 wasn't purchased in China/HK/Taiwan then search forums for penpower/pen power to find out how. However it is really more of a convenience feature for inserting the occasional Latin character in the midst of mainly Chinese characters since it's very tedious and rather error prone.

This is cool. Thanks Amanda.

I can't work out how to input 好 or 是 though. It'd be nice to have a way to get the expected stroke order for a given character.

好


是

is there document somewhere for nokia implementation of stroke order to form word? the stroke order you show for '好' is different from what I could recall if I were to write the word with pen and paper.

Cheers,

This looks awesome! I am starting my first course in chinese this autumn so this should be good to practice with.

slight OT question... what is the stroke order for word shown below. thanks,
