Hi Jonathan and everyone,
 
If you have an Apple computer, here are the instructions:
1. Apple Universal Access
2. Change the contrast (white on black)
3. Click on "Firefox"
4. SignPuddle
5. Choose the Quebec flag
6. Click on the blind or on the sighted dictionary
7. Click on "Connexion" (Login)
8. Click on "chercher par les mots" (search by words)
9. Type "malades"
10. See the source: André L.
11. Click on "réécrire le signe" (rewrite the sign)
12. Do you see a sign?  (No, the sign disappears)
But you can
11. Click on "réécrire SignText"  (rewrite SignText)
12. It works well, but I never used a "write SignText button" before and I
never try to edit a sign because I did not know how to edit it in SignText.
I will have to study the features in SignText ("delete, change, add, move",
and so on).
 
Best regards,
 
André

 Hi André,
     I am not sure why the sign disappears from the SignMaker box when you
click on the rewrite button.  Maybe because you didn't create the sign or
you are not the puddle administrator.  As far as I know this isn't a
SignPuddle/SignWriter issue.  Maybe someone else can help you with this one.
 
     But if you want the signs to be translatable, find the sign,
 
 
 then click on "Copy Sign from SignText"
 
 then click on "copier le signe"
 
 the choose the "Dictonnaire Quebec"
 
 
 Fill out the information
 
 
 Click on ajouter.
 
 Then you can search for the sign
 
 
 and click on "réécrire le signe" to fix the copy of the sign you have just
made, of course the original stays unchanged.
 
 
 Now you can go to Traduire
 
 type in "malade"
 
 and get the sign.
 
 
 I hope this helps
 
 Regards
 Jonathan
