<div class="">Hello SignWriting List members, </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">First of all I would like to introduce myself. My name is Peter Craxton and I am working with Uta Meissner in a project funded by the German government. The aim of this project is to develop a Signlexicon (<a href="http://www.sign4all.de" class="">www.sign4all.de</a>)
that has a SignWriting image using Sutton SignWriting Unicode. </div>
<div class="">Uta works on improving the efficiency of the SignMaker application. Every day, my project team members and Uta write sign gestures using SignMaker. In Sign4All and Sign2MINT there are more than 7,000 sign gestures with SWU. We will be writing
several thousand sign gestures. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The speed of creating SignWriting images for every sign gesture is increasing. We use various functions of SignMaker. However, there is confusion in creating SignWriting images in the Fill function of hand symbols. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I would like to give some hints about the structures of the hand orientation of some symbols which are not logical. First, I will show some examples that are logical and some that are illogical: </div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">1. example (logical): βBβ- hand shape ( U+41AA1)</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="140E0D61-7415-4B38-BF82-328066487DB4" width="646" height="307" src="cid:0B8CC678-8B0F-4789-9656-34A2DB9B6BCA" class=""></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I think that we can follow hand orientation by thumb fingers. That is logical structure which we can fill hand symbols effectively.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">2. example (illogical): "Rein Handβ (one of 30 phonemes in the DGS German Sign Language) (U+457C1 (<a href="https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=457C1" class="">https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=457C1</a>))</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Please see following picture. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="F51CC19B-370B-4D15-91B7-FCB0738A96F0" width="1124" height="676" src="cid:30FACDE1-E3D2-4AB8-80AA-14F256367BA9" class=""></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">
<div class="">There are some other illogical structures in the following links: </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><b class=""><a href="https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=458E1" class="">https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=458E1</a></b></div>
<div class=""><a href="https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=45B81" class="">https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=45B81</a></div>
<div class=""><a href="https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=45941" class="">https://slevinski.github.io/SuttonSignWriting/characters/symbols.html#?ui=en&set=swu&sym=45941</a> </div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We can follow the structure of the black and half-black filled hand symbols, but the white filled hand symbols show fingers on the other side. </div>
<div class="">My team members and Uta have a different perspective in the signwriting of the "controller" gesture:
<a href="https://sign4all.de/entry/Controller/recSqqLlJ0E52fLTT" class="">https://sign4all.de/entry/Controller/recSqqLlJ0E52fLTT</a></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Another example that shows the correct picture but the wrong symbol: <a href="https://sign4all.de/entry/Behandlungszimmer/reck6lCgZwxr5YqHF" class="">https://sign4all.de/entry/Behandlungszimmer/reck6lCgZwxr5YqHF</a></div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Both perspectives are correct, but they lead to discussions about what is right or wrong.</div>
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I am curious how the different structures of hand symbols were determined. I think if the hand symbols in the red circle were restructured / moved, it would be more logical. What do you think? </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I am delighted to begin this discussion. Thank you!</div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">Best wishes </div>
