Google Japanese IME handwriting recognition for Mac? - aldebrn - 2014-08-15 I've always liked using the Traditional Chinese handwriting recognition built into Mac OS X because the Mac trackpad doubles as a tablet with my finger as a stylus, and since it recognizes all radicals and many sub-kanji (I can has ?, part of 衣, no problem). It is annoying for the 10% or so of times that I can't convince Chinese to be Japanese, but it beat Windows where all I had was http://kanji.sljfaq.org. So I was delighted when I installed Google IME on Windows and saw it had handwriting! And it works well, given that I have to click the mouse button to paint, there being a distinct lack of magic Mac trackpad on my Dell (though I do note the inability to draw radicals ). So I go to install Google Japanese IME on Mac and ... no handwriting recognition? Before I complain to Google (hahaha), wanted to see if Koohiites had any ideas, am I just missing it? Or are there any other good ways to get handwriting recognition on Mac OS? Has anyone reverse-engineered how sljfaq's handwriting recognition works?

I think it was there somewhere and I added it to my dock to make finding it easier (sorry, haven't used Macs in a while, I know this isn't very specific) EDIT: Looks like you like also get to it from the drop down IME list. http://nozomi05.hatenablog.com/entry/2013/02/06/110011 Google Japanese IME handwriting recognition for Mac? - aldebrn - 2014-08-16 DOH!!!
