I personally like that better then having to remember the exact gloss for the one that I want. It makes it so that I can just quickly look at all my options. ;-)<br><br>Just my two cents. :-)<br><br>ADAM<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<br>> Kathleen (Kasterlinden)<br><br>Hello Kathleen, Sara and everyone -<br><br>Sorry it is raining and cold in Belgium....but be happy you have lots<br>of rain...that is something Southern California could use more<br>
of...although we did have a tiny bit of rain last night, and the<br>fires seem to be almost gone out in the desert areas...<br><br>And thanks for your question about the new Translate feature in<br>SignPuddle 1.5, which I think is an amazing improvement...
<br><br>So let me explain. Let us imagine you are translating ASL signs in<br>the ASL dictionary...<br><br>I typed " Me want go now." in English and push the Translate Button.<br>(see attached)<br><br>Look at all the entries in the dictionary for ME, WANT and GO! This
<br>way I can choose the version I need fast, without having to leave the<br>Translate area to look in the dictionary to see what choices I<br>have...I just press the Radio Button of the version of the sign I<br>want, and then press the Update Button.
<br><br>Once updated, I can then place the translation into SignMail, or I<br>can copy it into SignPuddle to add it to the dictionary or literature<br>puddles online...and make changes to it as well in SignText, adding<br>
extra facial expressions and punctuation...<br><br>A lot of people don't realize the different ways a sign can be<br>written too, so by seeing the choices they learn the different ways<br>one sign can be written...<br>
<br>Ask more questions if you wish.... Val ;-)<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>____________________________________________<br><br>SW-L SignWriting List<br><br>Post Message<br><a href="mailto:SW-L@majordomo.valenciacc.edu">
