Swype question

**evoldroid** · 09-19-2012, 02:09 PM

I just switched roms about a day ago and went with the Arctic HD.But I'm missing my original droid razr Swype is there a way I can install the original Swype back on my phone? I have the Swype beta but I liked the original for the arrows on the top of the keyboard.

I'm sure there's an option somewhere in the Swype beta settings to enable and show the arrow keys. Have you been able to find that option?

Yeah, just switch to the numeric keyboard like this:

Then long press on the ABC Key beside the Swype settings key:

and you'll get to the edit menu:

Here you have all the Arrow Keys, Copy, Paste, text selection, etc

What if you want the arrow keys to be on the main keyboard all the time, not just when you go through a routine of several taps on utility keys? When I used Swiftkey,.I set it up so that the arrows were always on the main keyboard. I'd like.to do the same thing with Swype. Is that possible?

Assuming same on Nexus 7 ( which it should be) the recommended answer is to slide your finger from the swype symbol over the 123 symbol to the right.

if they're on that main keyboard screen, I use the cursor keys many, many times a day. It saves me from having to lift my dinner off the keyboards, tap on the text and reposition the cursor one of two characters to the left or right. If I have to hit or Swype a few extra keystrokes, it interrupts the flow.

Ah, the woes of a touch typist in a swiping world.

I just downloaded touch pal keyboard for use of Swype only because I to was missing Swype from arctic HD. It does not have the arrows at the top but you can get to them.
