<div dir="ltr">Hi all,<div><br></div><div>you all are great. :)</div><div><br></div><div>I never thought that tricks were used here.<br>So that a long arrow correctly placed should be understood as a wrist movement.

First wrist movement then long arrow? </div><div>I think:</div><div>First - > big movement, more arm</div><div>Second -> small movement, more hand or finger </div><div><br></div><div>It is difficult to determine what trace of movement the gesture "Children" left behind. You can write that in different ways, but from the middle to the outside, that's for sure.<br>Perhaps the search in motion should focus on direction rather than track of motion.<br></div><div><br></div><div>I wouldn't recommend setting a new fixed symbol from multiple symbols, because then the number of symbols would increase dramatically, which is definitely not helpful.<br>We are currently investigating whether we should use rotational motion including straight motion. Because the symbols are very difficult to understand because they are rather unknown and the sign search will be less successful because, for example, you only saw the straight-line movement and not the additional arm rotation. My feeling says separate better.<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Source: <a href="http://sign2mint.de" target="_blank">sign2mint.de</a></div><div><img src="cid:ii_kzfzpgb14" alt="image.png" width="562" height="196"><br></div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://sign2mint.de/entry/Pazifik/5750242766511595:1802" target="_blank">https://sign2mint.de/entry/Pazifik/5750242766511595:1802</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Or, you think, the follow signwriting is more better?</div><div><img src="cid:ii_kzfzzfdh7" alt="image.png" width="134" height="70" style="margin-right:0px"><br></div><div>In this gesture, it doesn't matter whether you rotate your arm or move your hand to represent a wave.

All of our wonderful software developers are overwhelmed with jobs so I doubt that's going to happen anytime soon so we need to make due right now. <br>

>> I think you are correct that when we are establishing the SignSpelling Sequence for a sign that has Traveling Flex Symbols, we probably should be sorting by wrist flexing and I think the wrist flexing comes first and the traveling arrows second. What do you think? Anything that would help searching. Because I just tried to search for them and had trouble so we do need to clean this up.<br>

>>> First question that comes to mind is should we be using with the wrist flex arrows instead for the SignSpelling? I understand that using it in the actual writing might mess things up in the actual spelling, such as when converted to SVG font, because of the overlapping of the wrist line and the traveling arrow stem. The reason I ask is because it is technically more accurate and might be more helpful for searching.<br>
>>> <br>
>>> The other question is more of a “chicken or egg” question. Ha! Should the wrist flex arrows come first in the SignSpelling Sequence for these traveling wrist flex movements, or should the traveling arrow come before the wrist flex? I have actually seen it both ways in our sorting. I am not sure if there is a specific reason for that.<br>
