Copy And Paste Texts On P900

2 replies · 2,494 views · Started 08 December 2004

Is there a function on the P900 which would enable you to copy text from any application and paste it on any other application? For example, I want to paste a url from the Jotter application to the Opera browser. Is this possible? I'm looking for the same function that the series 60 has. Tnx in advance.

using the stylus, highlight the text you want to copy, by dragging the stylus, (applying light pressure) over the text (from right to left).

Note: this may take several attempts!

Next select EDIT - copy

Open the Application you want to PASTE the copied text into

Place the cursor in the appropiate field

select EDIT - paste

If you are using OPERA as your Browser

select WEB - Open Web Page

tap on the little downward triangle, (list function) select Paste

In practice, it is sometimes quicker just to type/write the URL again ... 🙄

It might be usefull to open the keyboard first, I always find it easier. Besides, you won't risk loosing the text by accidently "writing" something when you have the text highlighted. You wouldn't believe how often that happened to me
