Re: Swype has cursor keys!

I hear everyone talking about Swype, which isn’t even out yet when I’ve been using SlideIT for a while now and LOVE it. I’ve used the Swype beta and I gotta say, SlideIT just works better. Its dictionary is better, it’s word prediction is better and it’s way of choosing alternate words is better. Instead of forcing you to choose from a popup menu, it makes its best guess then gives you an unobtrusive menu of alternate words to choose from in case it got it wrong. Please, try SlideIT, it’s a superior keyboad and it’s already available.

I was looking at the swype tutorial online and I saw on screen cursor keys. I could not find how to bring these up. I searched and found out how.

Swype from the "Swype" key to the SYM key next to it. A full cursor and edit keyboard comes up.

Swype is 10 times more useful now.

I hope this helps.. if not flame away!

Awesome, did not see that myself! Ty!

Bye bye WM, it was fun.

Re: Swype has cursor keys!

I hope they improve the battery performance in Swype. It seems to be one of the biggest (non radio) battery hogs on my EVO.

I still can't be without it.

Stupid question, if the beta is over and closed, how is Skype still working?

Re: Swype has cursor keys!

Hey guys.
I know this is unrelated but is there a way to have the EVO built in touch keyboard automatically add a space?
Thanks.

Re: Swype has cursor keys!

Also. For the swype keyboard if you hold the Symbol button after pressing it once. It opens a different view with larger buttons for the numbers, etc.
