Hey, it's what the list is for. If not, we may as well have archives and no
list for discussion. It's not that I never use them, but there are new folks
coming on the list all the time. What is old to us is new to them. If a
topic doesn't need reading by myself, I delete it.

Isn't everything old new again fairly quickly these days? This question was
just discussed, hashed and rehashed two days ago.
Please take a look at the archives.

Hi all, I have trouble with the delete part of editing. I never can seem to
get the cursor in the right place to delete the right character. I would
really appreciate some help on this. Thank you so much for everything to all
of you on the list. God bless, Wren

Should I do a recording of me editing text on my I touch and or iPad?
Editing on any iOS device works the same. If so, I will in a few days
when I get back to the place where I left my recorder. This is
assuming that nothing comes up, and y'all want a recording. Oh yes,
I'm typing this on the screen of my iPad. LOL.

Well, I don't do a lot of it because I don't write long messages on the
phone, but I do know that control C and control V still work as they do
in Windows. Sorry, I just do not use the phone for a writing tool and
one reason is because editing is a royal pain, if I ever get Siri things
might change but then maybe not.

Hi,
How do you do text selecttion with a bluetooth keyboard, and by what
units of text can you select?
Thanks.

The edit function and cut and paste on the phone itself is junk, said
from someone who much prefers using a keyboard when needing to edit
where ctrl v and c work and where deleting works with separate keys so
you know exactly if you are going the right direction. I very much hate
editing on the phone itself, if Vokul makes a mistake, in fact, I just
leave it there, and if I make a horrible on typing I just delete the
whole thing and try again. I don't do lengthy messages or e-mail on the
phone, only mail I get is to send phone numbers to the address connected
to the phone because reading e-mail on the phone is not for me at least
a pleasant experience. I have lots of uses for the phone but editing,
cutting and pasting are not among them unless I am bored and feel I have
nothing else to do.
I like the phone and it goes everywhere with me but those functions and
the rotors are my least favorite. Practice in those cases does not make
perfect, just frustration.

Yes, as above, make sure you are going in the right direction.
When I first got my iPhone I thought the edit function was junk until I
realized my mistake.

Hi all,
I often get really confused when I try to edit the text that I've typed.
For example, when I want to edit a text message, I swipe down with one
finger and VO reads the text character by character.
Now, if I want to delete a character, I double tap the delete button.
So, sometimes the character that VO last spoke gets deleted and at
other times the character which was immediately before the character
that VO last spoke gets deleted.
So, how exactly does this work?
Let's say I've made a spelling mistake and have written my name as R A
H O U L instead of R A H U L.
So, where should I press the delete button to delete the O?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Best,
Rahul
