Mouse Handwriting

An Obsidian plugin to practice handwriting with your mouse — a mouse-based tracing workbook, like a handwriting version of a typing tutor.

Open a dedicated full-page practice sheet, pick what to trace, and write over an on-screen guide. Great for handwriting practice and for training mouse control for drawing.

Features

• Dedicated .penmanship sheets — a full-page canvas, opened like an Excalidraw file, not a code block.
• Problem sets grouped by content language (choose from a dropdown, default English):
  • Letters — Korean jamo, uppercase/lowercase alphabet, numbers, hiragana, katakana.
  • Words — Korean, English, and Japanese word drills.
  • Short text — trace a famous passage one line at a time.
  • Long text — trace a whole passage at once on a tall canvas.
• Guide options — trace over the target text (outline or filled), over evenly spaced ruled lines, or with no guide at all.
• Finish preview — when you complete a sheet, see a guide-free image of exactly what you wrote.
• UI in Korean / English / Japanese, switchable in settings.
• Free practice only — no scoring, no pressure.

Usage

1. Click the pencil ribbon icon (or run "Create new penmanship sheet").
2. Choose a practice language, then a set (letters, words, short/long text).
3. Trace the guide with your mouse. Use Clear / Undo, change the Guide style, and move with Prev / Next.
4. On the last cell, press Finish to see your guide-free writing.
