Freehand writing editing like Newton Messagepad
I keep waiting for someone to replicate the Newton MessagePad. You’re getting there, but here are some things I would love you to add:
- treat handwritten text more like a word processor treats type. I should be able to select streams of words just as I would in a word processor by dragging across the line or block with an i-bar pointer, and then cut, copy, delete. And do wrapping like a word processor too.
- Have the option for having those blocks of handwritten text in a basic outliner, with drag and drop of points, indenting and outdenting, drag and drop of parts of the tree, and collapsing parts of the outline
- also support basic (typed) text editing. Ideally, let me mix together handwritten and typed words in the same paragraph.
- support on-the-fly text editing
Just copy the Newton feature set. 25 years later, it’s still the best handwriting notepad ever conceived.

When I first started studying at medical college, I had a hard time writing essays. Especially when I had to take into account all the medical terms and structure the work. At one point, when I was completely desperate, I was advised to contact the site https://nursingwriting.org/nursing-homework-help/ . I decided to give it a try and did not regret it! The specialists created an excellent essay taking into account all the requirements and terms. The work was ready on time, and the quality was top notch. It was a real salvation, and now I will contact them when I need help!
