If you are using Azhagi for the first time, as soon the application starts, the cursor will be
placed in ETA (English text area. i.e. the top text area) only. You can start typing immediately
to effect Transparent (Dual Screen) Transliteration
(DST). Note that 'caps lock' should be off.
Use F10 (or Alt-c) to toggle between Tamil(Tam) and English(Eng) font. By this way, you can
generate mixed text (i.e. both English and Tamil) , as you keep typing.
You cannot type in TTA (Tamil text area. i.e. the bottom text area) in between. All the
typing/editing etc. has to be done in ETA only.
To set the interface to 2-screen mode at any time, just click on the button captioned 'Dual
Screen'. Alternatively, you can either:
1. Click on 'Preferences'. Then, Click on 'Screen Appearance' and choose 'Dual Screen'.
(or)
2. You can right click on Azhagi's operating icon (in the right bottom of your screen), move to
'Transliteration mode' and choose 'Transparent'.
Note :
· You can cut and paste English text from some other source too on to the ETA and have it
got transliterated in the TTA in no time.
· As you keep typing in the ETA, you can pause/resume the Tamil transliteration in the TTA
by alternately unchecking and checking the check box captioned 'T T'.
· You can do formatting in ETA and the corresponding formatting will be automatically
carried out in TTA.
· Use DST as a kick-start for your transliteration experience. Do not attempt to type too
many pages using DST. For typing many pages, either use 'Single Screen' transliteration
or directly transliterate in MS-Word.
