Though it may feel awkward to be writing Chinese with a mouse or using a laptop touchpad, this method doesn't require buying a writing tablet and pen, installing additional software, or having. Use your mouse or touchpad to draw the charcters in the empty white box of the IME Pad's Handwriting applet. I just bought a Wacom Bamboo Tablet for my laptop which runs Vista Ultimate x64. I keep reading online about people using the Handwriting recognition feature (which. Jan 30, 2008. You can use Vista's pen features on a touchscreen laptop or tablet-equipped PC to do much more than simply mark up Word documents or write e-mail as handwritten graphics, but after many attempts I remain unconvinced of the usefulness of the OS's handwriting recognition. Even after hours of training. So I upgraded to windows 10 today on my surface pro 3 and for the most part, things work well. The most common problem I've run into is that when I click the little keyboard icon on the task bar with the pen or shortly after using the pen, it opens the handwriting version of the on screen keyboard. I never want to see that thing again. I don't care if it works well, makes me coffee and/or finds my soulmate in search results. I want a keyboard to come up when I try to open the on screen keyboard. However, I can't find an option to set the default on screen keyboard action, to disable the handwriting function, or to just remove it. Has anyone found a way to accomplish one of those goals? Easy temp fix. Go to settings, regions, languages, add language and select Euskara, which doesn't support hand writing. Once it's installed click on Euskara, add keyboard, and select the English keyboard of yr choice. Then click on Euskara again and sect make default. Realize that once you reboot, context menus notifications and stuff will all be in Euskara. It's not hard the commands are in the same place. While Euskara is default, o handwriting bosx, just your nice comfy keyboard. You can toggle the menus and the handwriting by just changing default language an rebooting. All features of the pen will still work. One note, drawing, marking web pages etc all good. I know this isn't very elegant. Microsoft could do a quick fix by publishing all language packs with one version having the handwriting module removed. It would be illegal for me to download the English language cab and remove the handwriting module myself. Even worse if i wrote an app to install or uninstall the module as a separate file on demand. Of course I would never be so naughty, but Microsoft should do this or I'm sure some bad boy or girl will do it for them. Please give a little feedback if you like the fix. If it works for you please share, especially with Microsoft forums. I have been telling them since the first preview of W10 what was wrong with handwriting and how to fix it. For those of you soldiering on with handwriting, it will work much better if you turn off get to know me, suggestions, form filler, spell check and autocorrect. If that's a bother, just use open source browser and office instead of Microsoft software. This will limit hand writing to basic recognition, which is pretty good, but keep you away from Cortana, Bing, and the handwriting dictionary, all of which screw up (enhance in Microsoft speak) the basic recognition. I don't even use a pen with my device but this seemed a fun way to give the lazy programmers at Microsoft a well deserved thumb in the eye. They should be ashamed at how bad this is compared to 8.1 • • • •. This post is kind of amusing to me, because the one improvement I feel they made is how it automatically pops up in handwriting mode when I use my pen. In every other way, they have destroyed handwriting input, so it's funny to me that someone else hates that so much. Either way though, the real solution (and how it should've been implemented in the first place. Which I suggested long before they switched it to auto popup in pen mode) would've been to make it remember the last method you used (per input type and screen orientation, in my opinion). To give examples because I feel like I expressed that poorly, if I want a split keyboard when I touch the screen in landscape, it should remember that was the last thing I opened. If I switched to handwriting when using the pen, it should remember that, and if I want portrait mode touch to give the standard keyboard, it should remember that too. That would really solve the problem for everyone (and while I'm at it, let's put something similar on the lockscreen where it shows picture password if I'm using touch and PIN unlock when using a keyboard or mouse). Here's a Quick Fix 2 hold you over until Microsoft Fixes it!!! All you have to do is open the 'On-Screen Keyboard'. (This can be found using search or by going to the 'Ease of Access' section of the settings.) Once its open you can slide it down to the bottom of the screen out of site, or set it to 'Fade', or in a place of your choosing. Now As long as this 'On-Screen Keyboard' is active, this stops the Handwriting Panel from popping up. **PROBLEM SOLVED* However it also stops the Touch keyboard from popping up as well. But if you are using a Wacom tablet then u probly also have a physical keyboard anyway. I suggest 'pinning' this app to the taskbar', that way its always just a click away. Also u have the option to set the 'On-Screen Keyboard' to always start automatically when you start windows.]] - i hope this helps you until Microsoft finally fixes this issue.::: @Faazon::. After I upgraded from Vista Home Premium to W7, I realized that the upgraded Windows has taken away Chinese Handwriting feature using Writing Pad. This is a big disapointment for me as I do not expect any downgrade in features when I 'upgraded' from Vista to the compatible version of Windows 7. I used my Tablet PC to teach my daughter writing in Chinese characters. Without this feature in Windows 7, my Tablet PC is useless. Anyway, is there any trick to enable Chinese Handwriting Recognition on writing pad using stylus, such as downloading additional software (but without upgrading to Windows 7 Ultimate)? I hate to pay for the Ultimate version just for this feature. Hi, Windows 7 handwriting recognition only supports your display language and English in all editions except for 7 Ultimate and 7 Enterprise. Without windows 7 ultimate Enterprise, you may need to manually install a launguage pack to achieve this. As a workaround, you can enable the handwriting pad in language bar and see if it can apply your request. Open 'Text services and input languages', 'General' click 'Add'->Chinese (Simplified PRC)->Keyboard->check the box before 'Chinese (Simplifies)- Microsoft Pinyin New Experience Input St'. Apply the settings. Then you will find the language bar has a CH tab, expend it there is 'IME pad', click on it, you can also enable Chinese Handwriting Recognition. In addition, there are many free Chinese handwriting recognition software you might be of interest.
