1/6/2010
The Simplified Chinese MSPY 3.0 IME functionality in Windows Embedded CE supports the Microsoft Pinyin (MSPY) Input Method Editor (IME) 3.0 for Simplified Chinese. MSPY 3.0 functions as a sentence-based input method. It uses an intelligent, bigram-based language model and has self-learning capability with a high degree of accuracy. MSPY 3.0 allows you to select one of three lexical databases, as show in the following table.
| Database | Size |
|---|---|
Minimal |
1.1 MB |
Compact |
1.3 MB |
Standard |
1.7 MB |
The following table shows the new functionality supported by MSPY 3.0 for Windows CE 5.0.
| Functionality | Description |
|---|---|
EUDP enables users to define a customized phrase inline. Users can select the phrase in the composition string and then press the ENTER key on the target device if they are using a hardware keyboard, or choose the "Phrase" button if they are using the Shuang Ping on-screen keyboard. EUDP support is configurable through the registry. |

Self-learning capability |
MSPY 3.0 remembers user modifications in the composition window and adjusts the occurrence frequency of a specific word or string that is entered by the user whenever applicable. This functionality is always enabled and cannot be disabled. For more information about the composition window, see Using the IME Composition Window. |

Setting the horizontal or vertical candidate list.
Setting the default input mode.
Auto-switching the input mode according to the state of the Software-based Input Panel (SIP).

Note
Because of the dependencies between this IM and the Input Method Editor (IME), the MSPY 3.0 Shuang Pin IM does not work in a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) scenario.
