Swype has cursor keys!

Yes, I will get flamed that this has been posted 14 times and I suck but....

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!

Jeff

Re: Swype has cursor keys!

Ha. I was looking for the same thing. Guess it helps to actually go through the tutorial.

Now they just need to add a voice command key.

Re: Swype has cursor keys!

No flame here thanks for the tip. I even went throught the tutorial, but that was before I actually had swype. Guess its time to review it.

Re: Swype has cursor keys!

Skip the tutorial = missing half the features. I rarely use tutorials, but this is one case where it pays off big time

No flame from me.

thanks for alerting me to this.. I never went through the tutorial either.

Oh, my wife said to me the other day "You know I hate to tell you that you were right, but Swype really is much easier for texting on my phone" I had to chuckle.

I agree too. I never go through tutorials,but I did for swype.

Swype is a amazing feature rich keyboard. I would have never guessed at half of them. Like how to capitalize, punctuation, navigation.. etc.
