| Summary | 0001989: Clear a text area | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Revision | 2008-02-01 23:23 by druck | ||
| Description | The ability to clear an entire multiline text area with a key shortcut. Completely removing large amounts of text from a text area is very difficult. Ctrl+U only deletes one line, and it seems impossible to either make a selection larger than the visible text with the mouse, ctrl+A often selects the entire page, and ctrl+X fails to delete. All that needs fixing, but a shortcut would be a workaround and a useful feature in itself. |

What prompted this report was an attempt to edit this RISC OS Opebn wiki page http://www.riscosopen.org/wiki/documentation/pages/FilingSystemUpdate I exported the text to Zap, edited it, then was faced with the task of clearing the field before I could past back in to it. It took about 5 minutes. A better solution is required. nobody added a note on Tue Feb 5 22:26:27 2008 Logged In: NO What about Ctrl-End + auto-repeat?
