So does Touchpal (I use version 3.5, the new 4.0 sucks IMHO).

I never use the hardware KB, TouchPal has more useful functions & is 50 times faster than a hardware KB if you use the T+ function........

Do you have a link to Touchpal 3.5? The exact one you use.

I tried this on TP2 and it would said the screen resolution was not supported. Am i missing something?

*sigh* If only the tap&hold approach worked in lists (File Explorer, Email, etc).

yes , this is one feature that should have been a no brainer in my mind, but at least email gives the option to go to menu, select several messages, (one by one click) and then delete several at once...I was getting tired of doing the open each and delete

I just found that it do albeit differently with an extra step. In Explorer for example, you can tap and copy/cut fine but in order to paste you have to hit the menu softkey to the bottom left, go to edit and hit paste. I just figured this out since I failed to accept that they would totally take away that functionality. Then again, you might have already known this...lol

If you are using the Rhodium Keyboard Controller and mapped your Messaging, or some other keyboard, key to the "Control" function, consider the following:

Remap the Fn+C, Fn+X, and Fn+V keys to their own values (C, X, and V) but also check the Ctrl checkbox for those mappings. Then to use Copy, Cut, and Paste you simply use Fn+C, or Fn+X, or Fn+V. This is much cleaner and when you think about it logical.



You can then restore the original functionality of the Messaging key, or whatever key you remapped to Control.

You can also do this with the Left and Right arrows. Fn+Left and Fn+Right arrow will then move the cursor to the previous or next word. Works great in Messaging, or anywhere else you might type. Of course in this case you loose the FN actions originally mapped to those keys, but in my case (Telus) that's just the browser and comm manager. Personally I can't recall a time I launched them from the keyboard shortcut.

Unfortunately I can't take credit for this one. I too had mapped the Messaging key to the Control function, until another member, csper, clued me into this somewhere else.
