Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology include obtaining form data corresponding to a form. The form includes one or more lines of text of the form and one or more fields of the form. Aspects also include determining one or more text attributes of the one or more lines of text of the form. The one or more text attributes include at least one of semantic information or geometric information. Aspects also include identifying the one or more fields of the form based at least in part on the determined one or more text attributes and displaying the form data with an indication of the identified one or more fields.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for stroke based control of handwriting input. The disclosed stroke based control facilitates selection, copy, paste, search, data detection and other operations for handwritten electronic text. The selection of text represented by handwritten strokes can be performed without drawing a lasso or other loop around the desired text, by using known boundaries of words and phrases in stroke space. Selection of text in this manner allows copy and/or paste of recognized words or phrases, of images of the words or phrases, and/or of the strokes themselves. Boundaries, in stroke space, of actionable data represented by the strokes can also allow action options to be provided when a user interacts with strokes within the boundary.

Abstract: Some embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to electronic devices that provide for entering text into one or more text-entry regions within a document displayed in a user interface. Some embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to electronic devices that provide for presenting a mark with thickness that depends on the direction in which a drawing input is received. Some embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to electronic devices that provide for presenting simulated marks that merge with or overlap other simulated marks. Some embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to electronic devices that provide for scrolling and movement of a content entry palette in a user interface based on movement of input directed to the content entry palette.

Abstract: The subject technology provides for receiving a new input stroke. The subject technology determines whether the new input stroke is associated with an existing line group based on a writing direction estimate of the existing line group. The subject technology merges the new input stroke with the existing line group in response to determining that the new input stroke is associated with the existing line group. The subject technology determines a local orientation of the existing line group including the new input stroke based on an estimate of a direction of writing and a scale of each stroke. The subject technology normalizes the existing line group including the new input stroke using the determined location orientation.
