Text in iOS, how to allocate alternative gestures
Ios / / December 22, 2019
I thought that iOS already studied me up and down. It turns out it is not. By means unusual for some users on iOS gestures you can be very convenient to highlight snippets of text. These gestures we will tell in the article.
Work with text on mobile devices is not very convenient. The plates are still somehow cope with this task, on smartphones and say nothing. Especially about the iPhone last models chetyrohdyuymovym screen. But with just a few gestures can greatly simplify this task.
I am sure that you know how to highlight text in iOS. It is necessary to hold your finger on the right words, and then, when the sliders will highlight, to install them at the beginning and end of the desired piece of text. I can not say that it is convenient or inconvenient. We recovered the text in this way from the very first version of iOS, therefore, it has long since become accustomed.
However, there are still a few gestures that simplify the selection. They can only be used in those applications are designed to work with the text. For example, the following gestures supported standard application "Notes"
iA Writer and a dozen other applications.Ways to identify the paragraph:
- make four tapas for a paragraph;
- tapnut on it with two fingers simultaneously.
Ways to select the relevant text:
- double-tap on the text and, without lifting your finger, select the desired portion;
- tapnut one finger in the beginning of the segment, and the second - at the end.
It is a pity that these gestures can not be used in all applications. Despite this, they are much easier to work with the text in the relevant annexes. The only problem - it will take some time to accustom yourself to use them. But it's worth it.
