Using Undo

You can Undo your most recent changes to a sketch by selecting "Undo" from the Edit menu. You can also activate this by just typing a "u" in the graffiti area. When you select Undo, your sketch will revert to the last time any of the following occured:

  • You started DiddleBug
  • You viewed another sketch in the buffer
  • Another dialog was active
  • You switched pens or inks
  • You inserted a line, shape, or text

This means that Undo will erase any strokes you have made since one of the above has occurred. It will not Undo individual strokes unless you deliberately switch pens or inks to set the "checkpoint" to revert to. Undo can only be performed once per action... there is no multiple-undo buffer.

Please note that Undo is not "undoable"... meaning that there is no "Redo" command. Once you undo some changes, there is no way to get them back. Also, note that the Clear, Fill, and Invert commands from the Edit menu are not undoable. By default, you will be prompted to confirm any Undo command, but this is configurable in the DiddleBug preferences.

Swipes and Shortcuts

To insert Date/Time stamp:

Swipe from the alarm bar into the sketching area. Drop the date-time-stamp by lifting the pen. To abort, drag off the top of the screen, or down into the graffiti area.

To enter transfer mode:

Swipe Alarm Bar left

Using IntelliBooger Plugins

Just a few quick notes about using IntelliBoogerTM plugins to enter text into other applications...

  • Select the "Page"->"Transfer" menu to enter transfer mode.
  • You can also enter transfer mode by "swiping" the alarm bar towards the left.
  • You must have a plugin installed to use this feature.
  • You can select which plugin to use by tapping the plugin button (second from the left). The picture on this button will change to indicate which plugin you are using.
  • Tapping the flick button (far left) will initiate the transfer.
  • If you want to change the "GoTo" or "Delete sketch" option, you must hold the pen down on the flick button and drag it upwards over the option you would like to change.
  • The flick button will change its picture depending on which options you have chosen for "GoTo" or "Delete sketch". It will be bullet-shaped when no Goto option is selected, or arrow-shaped when Goto is selected. If "Delete sketch" is selected, then a white line will be drawn vertically through the button.
