Copy And Paste On Touch Pro 2

[cyclical]

If you select "Menu" in most things, there is a "Select Text" option that you can click. It allows you to select text onscreen.

Select Text is not available on all the screens.

+1 please!!!

I used to be able to select all text on 6.1 (it was better on my kaiser where I could highlight text), but after I have flashed to 6.5 I can't do it anymore. I tried putting keyboard controler on and ctl+a but that doesn't select anything in msn

can anyone help pls?

I hadnt noticed this yet. i dont miss the ctrl key but i cant say i like having to choose select text vs just highlighting. I really hope they come out with a cooked rom. im tired of stock and im ready to start experimenting.

Ok i guess everyone else missed this... but you CAN select text in text messages WITHOUT having to go to menu and turning select text on...

Here's how:
It's not like before where you instantly start selecting. Now, you press and hold where you want to start highlighting... Wait until you start seeing the lil animation (before the select all context menu pops up), then start dragging over text. after that, simply hold the selection for the copy menu. Simple! Hope this helps.

By the way, this works in emails too

I personally like this more because it makes scrolling through the threaded texts much easier.

I was so excited when I saw this post, however it doesn't seem to work for me. Did you try this in Windows Mobile 6.5?

FingerKeyboard has a copy and paste function which works really well. It is, IMO, a much better alternative than switching back & forth to the default WM keyboard solely for this purpose.
