I'd like to know if there's any way to edit the Text by 'dragging' the cursor to the letter you want, rather than switching to the Swype-Edit screen and using the arrows there? Something like what's present on the iPhone(magnifies the text as you drag your finger to move the cursor along).

I was going through the notepad tutorials .... the cursor was placed in the middle of edit text ..i tried to make the cursor to point in the first line as shown in the pic but not able to find the solution for it...
View 2 Replies View RelatedSimple concept, I feel stupid for asking. Let's say I typed that as "Simple concept, I feel stupid for basking" and tapped the screen to put the cursor after the B in BASKING to delete it, but accidentally inserted before the B. How do I delete that without struggling to get the cursor exactly after the B? On a BB you can just hit the ALT key while hitting delete and it would delete the B after the cursor. I can't seem to figure out a simple typing issue.

Let's say I was typing for a bit and I noticed that I mis typed something. If I want to put my cursor where the mis typed letter is, it is not always the easiest thing to do. I noticed on my friends iphone if he were to put the cursor near the letter and hold his finger there a zoomed in window would pop up and alow him to move the cursor to the location he wants to put it.
Is there any app that can do this on the droid?
Every now and then when I get a text and try to reply, none of the letter buttons will work. From what I've tried, the only way to fix it is to exit all the way out of the messaging application and go back in. The buttons will animate like they are being pushed, vibrate, and even show swype trails and word suggestions, but none of my words will show up on the screen.
I haven't figured out the specific instances when this happens. It seems a little random but I think it may only happen when I lock the screen without leaving the messaging application first, I get a text, and try to reply immediately from the app. But I'm really not sure - it might just be random.
It happened 2 times already. I open the slide out keyboard and start typing an email, some letters (like C) does not type so I try a few times clicking the key and it types. then when I hit A the entire text is highlighted and the next character that I type replaces the highlighted text. You can imagine how annoying this can be. I thought I must have done something wrong and examined that the fn key was not pressed (cycled through it by pressing fn 3 times). No luck. I tried the same thing in 5 min and it all worked fine. I am baffled.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI developed my first (small) Andoid application using Eclipse and are now ready to transfer it to my Galaxy S mobile device (develping for Android 2.1)
Following another thread in SE, I changed the run mode in Eclipse to manual in the hope that I would be able to chose my phone and/or AVD every time I run the program.
The popup list howerver only show the AVD, my phone is not present in the list.
So obviously, my Samsung Galaxy S device is not recognized. Howerver, I can transfer to and from the device using a drive letter, so the USB connection is working properly.
Anyone any idea what I am missing here ? I'm not sure if it is an Eclipse problem , or a driver or ....
How do you position the cursor in a text box? Evidently, some of the other Galaxy S models have an alternate keypad pop up when you press and hold the ?123 key in a text box.I have not been able to make it work on my Fascinate. See this article for details and do a search for "?123": Galaxy S Tips and Tricks (works w/ Captivate, Epic 4G, Fascinate, Vibrant)Is there some other method to accurately position the cursor as shown above?

If I type a paragraph and need to change a word, I need to be able to put a cursor right where the word is so I can edit/delete/replace the word. Since it's invisible. Is this a problem or is there a different mechanism to achieve that in Swype?

I have so far found two bugs in Galaxo 1.6.3:
a) Speaker doesn't work in call (very weak). works well in ringtones etc.
b) Scrolling contacts by letter doesn't work.
Other than that this is a leap forward, especially with the overclock options!
Both bugs, as well as others, fixed in 1.6.3.1 update!
I have a problem as follows:
In my project i am having rich text editor options to apply for the edit text view. In that i applied font color,font names,font size options for user.But these options will apply for whole text available in edit text. But my problem is i want to apply user selected settings (like font color,size,font) for user selected text instead of Whole text. i want to apply the user selected font/color/size to the user selected text.How?
How to implement this .
Go into applications and edit (like it says). But then it doesnt allow me to drag one of the bottom 4 icons.
I'm on Orange in the UK BTW. Just wondering if its a special version with this disabled.
I'm not referring to textInput, either. I mean that once you have static text in a TextView (populated from a Database call to user inputted data (that may not be Capitalized)), how can I make sure they are capitalized?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe Droid is my first smartphone. Before it I was texting with the dialpad, and the phone would count down how many letters I have left (out of 160, the text msg length). Using the "messaging" icon on the Droid it never says when I'm approaching the text message limit. So is this "messaging" icon really like an instant messenger? It's not GTalk, that's another icon. If I send a 250 character txt message through the "messaging" app, does it get broken into 2 messages for the receiver?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor the past week or so I've been having issues with the bottom left corner of my touch screen (in portrait). If I am typing a text I cant select the letter Z or the shift/caps key. I also have a hard time selecting shortcuts in that corner. I am running the 1st 2.1 leak if that makes any difference. Is anyone experiencing touchscreen issues that may have any solutions or should I get a replacement? Does anyone think the OTA might fix this? BTW, I've calibrated my phone several times to no avail. It also happens in landscape but it shifts to the bottom right corner of course!

I am receiving alot of messages off my other half and like to keep some but i don't want to have to keep going back to a 121 message thread. can i not have 2 or 3 threads from the same contact?
I thought this would be easy to find:
A text editor that can create/edit text files from the SD card.
i.e. Windows Notepad on the Desire?
I have an EditText where users can set text to bold, italic, etc but I can't figure out how to save that text with styles as .txt file/any otherway to save it.If we save as html page we can't edit the webview. I use getText but that only returns text and no style info.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am doing a custom edit box class. It starts something like: public class Amount Field extends Edit Text and has over riden the constructor to implement the Edit Text widget style However when I implement this on my XML I get an editable Text View instead of the Edit Text (there is only text but not the surrounding white box) and also when I click on it nothing happens, only text color changes. Are there any ideas on why this happens? I've done list components the same way and style is not altered.
