Editing functions
The "Edit" menu or its assigned shortcuts can be used to edit text. Text blocks can be highlighted, cut,
copied, pasted, or deleted. Words or partial words can also be searched for and/or replaced. Detailed
instructions regarding all of these commands now follow.
4.8.1
Highlighting
Highlighting commands are used to select or mark specific blocks of text for further editing. Highlighting is
a prerequisite for many of the editing functions explained in this manual, such as copying or cutting text to
the clipboard.
You can choose to highlight by character, word, sentence, line, paragraph, page, all text in the document,
or just specific chunks of text. The commands to highlight each of these units of text follows below.
Reminder that B9 refers to the left thumb key:
Highlight current character: B9+B1B4
Highlight current word: B9+B2B5
Highlight current sentence: B9+B3B6
Highlight current line: B9+B1B2B4B5
Highlight current paragraph: B9+B1B3B4B6
Highlight current page (assuming there are page breaks in the document): B9+B2B3B5B6
Highlight the entire document:
The first option is to go the command menu and then select menu item "Edit/Highlight
o
all".
o
The second option is to use the command B9 with B3B4B6B8
Highlight a specific block of text:
o
Place the cursor on the first character of the block, and select command menu item
"Edit/Highlight beginning/end of block".
o
Place the cursor on the last character of the block, and select command menu item
"Edit/Highlight beginning/end of block".
o
The shortcut B9+B1B4 will also highlight the beginning or end of a block.
Note: Highlighted blocks remain highlighted until another highlighting command is executed or the Cancel
command B9+B7B8, or display button D4 is pressed. Moving the cursor through the text will not remove
the highlighting. Highlighted text blocks will be indicated on the braille display by dot 8.
4.8.2
Cut, Copy, and Paste
This section explains how to copy, cut, and paste text within the word processor. In the case of copy and
cut, a basic instruction to highlight the desired text is given. For details on how to highlight text, please
refer to the previous section 4.8.1.
Copy
The copy function copies highlighted text to the clipboard, with a view to pasting it elsewhere within the
same document, or into another new or existing document in the word processor.
The originally highlighted text block remains highlighted unless or until other text is highlighted, or one of
the cancel commands is entered. Copied text remains on the clipboard until other copied text is placed
there.
Instructions:
1. Highlight the text you wish to copy.
2. Open the command menu by pressing system key S3, and select menu item Edit > Copy.
Alternatively, use the global shortcut command for copy: c+B8B9.
