Note
If you try to select a protected part program for editing, the dialog text "Editor
error: editing not permitted" appears (see the Section "Changing the access
rights").
Using the page up/down and the cursor keys, you can position the cursor at any
position of a part program already stored. Pressing the key combination SHIFT
+ ARROW or SHIFT + PAGE moves the cursor to the start or end of the line
or program file.
If you press RIGHT ARROW again at the end of a block, the cursor is
positioned at the beginning of the next line. Pressing LEFT ARROW at the
beginning of a block moves the cursor to the last character in the previous
block.
In the input line you can delete character by character from the right to the left
using the CLEAR key.
Press CANCEL to delete the character directly under the cursor. The result of a
text search is deleted completely.
Use the SELECTION key to select the first character of the character string
that you want to delete. Pressing the key twice cancels the selection.
Use the arrow keys to select the desired text. You can press the "Page Up" or
"Page Down" keys to select larger areas of text.
Press the ETC key to extend the softkey bar.
Press the CUT softkey to delete the selected text.
