II. Swype key to 'a'key swipe: select all
III. Swype key to 'x', 'c', 'v'key swipe: cut, copy, paste respectively.
IV. Swype key to 'r' or 't' or 'y' key swipe: numeric keyboard. (este548)
6. One of the best features I like on the GNote is the Clipboard,I havn't noticed this in any other Android device.
one can select the text in almost any application and it will be copied to the Clipboard,I have downloaded an App called AndClip from the Market(free),with it I can View,copy,Delete etc. all the texts which are copied to the Clipboard.
Very usefull feature. (hagba)
7. The notification bar is tough to draw on such a large screen with single hand use, which is why I am using this app:

Is there anyway to accept the suggested words as you type via the slideout keyboard without having to use the stylus to actually tap on the screen?
There are two ways I know of:
1. press the D-pad down to highlight the word you want and then the middle button to select
2. use the down arrow to highlight and then the enter key to select
FYI - In case you didn't know, tweaks2k2 has a registry tweak that allows for six suggested words to come up -- makes the feature quite a bit more helpful. I am sure you could find the registry hack yourself but why bother.
Hope this helps.
Thanks - i think the default 4 will suffice.
I was thinking it would be nice if there was someway to select text using the keyboard (like on a desktop PC) and lo and behold if you hold the Shift (Caps) key down and use the arrow keys it does select text.
Hurrah!
genius!
There's a great guy, Tom_Hiro255, who made this app http://www.nicque.com/PQz/ that allows you to use shortcuts and all sorts of other functions, check it out.
The post is, I believe, either in Universal or Blue Angel...it works on wm5.
Awsome tip. =)
Perhaps this works for you?
Double tap the SHIFT key on the SIP keyboard
Does not work for every app.
Also found ShiftLock values in two SIP modes.
But I don't think they make a difference.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429667-ae04-11d0-a4f8-00aa00a749b9}]

Hi All,
I've looked around and I find that a lot of PCM keyboard layouts focus too much on the skin and not enough on the layout.
I created the following layout and I find that for my own usage, it works really well. I'm uploading it here so that others can use it and modify it to their liking.
The main benefits of my layout over the default english layout are:
Main Layout:
1) second row shifted over to better match real keyboard layout
2) ".com" button for easy web shortcuts
3) 123#? button has shortcuts for popular used punctuation (. , are easiest to access)
4) enter key has the cut/copy/paste/opt shortcut
Secondary Layout:
4) Number keys are double width and moved to left of screen (easier for right handers)
5) layout focused on calculator/excel input. so * / + - = . are all easily accessible
6) All bracket/parenthesis is accessible in the () shortcut key
7) All other symbol keys are accessible in the sym shortcut key
8) holding down 0 will give you a space
9) enter/backspace/123#? all remain in same location (i didn't like how backspace was on left of layout
This layout should work fine on any of the default skins.
I hope you guys like it!
EDIT: INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
Looks like some of you are more inexperienced than I thought.
1) download the mr_yellow.layout.txt. remove the .txt extension and place it in your /program files/pcmkeyboard/ directory on your device
2) go to your input settings and select the options for pcm keyboard
3) "mr_yellow" should show up in the layout drop down box.
4) select and enjoy.
Just what the doctor ordered..thank you.
I was wondering why we hadnt seen anything like this released before. Functional as all hell.
How do I get this to work? Where do I place the text file?
I added install instructions. It's a pretty simple install. I had to rename the layout to .txt so that I could upload it.
On my HD2 phone I have installed Resco Keyboard (also there was another program but I have uninstalled it) and I don't see (or know) the options menu that it is said to be when you tap the triangle next to the input method indicator. I don't see any Option in the menu to configure the selected text input options ?
Where it is ?
Never mind found it in Settings menus...
So you replaced the default, powerful, HTC onscreen keyboard with a rip-off of the crappy iPhone onscreen keyboard?
The iFanBoyism will never cease to amaze me...
No, I don't like this either, now I just try all the keyboards I can find, until now Finger Keyboard is my preferred
I have a ported Note 5 ROM installed on my SM-900. The S-Pen works fine, but there's no option to transform the handwriting to text and formula in the S-Note. When I select my handwriting using the Lasso tool, I only get 4 options - Properties, Cut, Copy and Delete, but there's no Transform option. How do I get it?
