Load Signs from SignPuddle into SignText

Wed Mar 8 20:29:17 UTC 2006

Thank you... This project is for my assessment in my area.   Most of the
signs that I created is in a quick way to start.  I was going to get
back to some of the signs and correct the 'spelling' including face
expression in later time.  So, it is a good start to increase sign
writing in our directory! SMILE...

A lot of medical signs are not in the SignPuddle.  Our dictionary has
around 3,000 words but it is not exhaustive.  We will need to add many
more signs from various journals (with permission).  I have permission
from RIT to add their signs of Sexual Behavior, Signs of Drug Abuse, and
several other dictionaries to our dictionary.  Original research must be
attested to, and that requires time to upload and check.

Glad you want to help Philippe.

	Steve,

	Ok, thank you for the tip.   I did put all the words together at
the translate window and load to Sign Text and pressed refresh button
several times.  I still get many question marks.  Here is the words that
I am using for sign text, it is part of my survey questions and not
comple! ted sentence yet. I just want you to test it yourself.  You can
copy this and put on translate window...

government, me paranoid worry me finish HIV test_3 rumor, me want HIV
test none interpreter, other reason, none reason.

	Did you get many question marks when you load to sign text?  In
this case, we need to make corrections on image signs and fix the
fingerspelling in Sign Text.  Hope this helps...

	Hi Philip,

	You need to use the text editing buttons.  There are 9 for each
sign.

	The 2 that you want are  (Load) and  (Replace).

	(Load) will load the selected sign into the SignBox.

	(Replace) will replace the selected sign with the sign in the
SignBox.

	So let's say you want to modify a sign in your text.  This is a
3 step process.  
	1) Load the sign by clicking on (Load).
	2) Modify the sign in the SignBox.
	3) Replace the sign by clicking on (Replace).

	Regards,
	-Steve

text (not
	place at the end of the sentence)?  I am sorry if it is already
explain
	in the manual that I overlooked.

	Load Signs from SignPuddle Dictionaries continued...

	7. The signs will load into the sentence column in SignText
Editor.
	8. Press the Reload Button once to see the signs loaded into
SignText.
	9. Once the signs are in SignText, you can create a sentence
with them.
