Hi Tini, I can understand that and it ±± the same with me. Just in the very beginning the dictionaries are a precious gift!! The people who pioneered to write their version did a great job to give all of us a hint how to use the special symbols or how to arrange the various aspects of a sign. I learned very much from that. Today I feel independent and realize that sometimes I like more to write the symbols on my own instead of copying them from the dictionary but this takes a lot of practice before !! It ±± almost the same as learning to play an instrument or any other art !! And that is one of the reasons that I love this writing of comics and animated gifs so much you really get into this typing -method You develop a cognitive map abut the possibilities of the keyboard using all the various modes A, F, S -- There is one big problem that oft happens if beginners start to work with SW - for the one or aother reason they happen to open the SW - program a second or even third time. So now the program indicates - dictionary not found - no problem - shut all SW - programs down (save!! ha ) and start again. In the worst case you should look up in the Explorer (under Windows) - there you find a list of all your SW - files and there you should find your set (!!!!! hopefully) of dic and din files. Another problem may occur: If you have saved your SW - version on CD and reinstall (copy) it to your computer be sure to check the status of the files. They shouldn ±² be "schreibgesch ÿÿ zt" but archiv- files !! All the best and good luck for your next projects.
