Default Looking for touch screen tips

Please Login to Remove!

I've had my Storm since before Xmas, and am liking it more and more.
However, i'm still trying to figure out the trick to highlighting text for copy and paste operations in Emails and such. I seem to recall seeing a helpful tips thread, but for the life of me, cannot now find.

Can someone please throw me a clue?

Its kindda multi touch... for example if you are in SMS Message, and you touch one message with one finger at the top and then with the other finger on the bottom, all in between plus the messages your touched will be selected.

Also, there is a way to move across when you are typing and you made a mistake. Simply, touch on one end of the message and it will become a clear box then you can slide ur finger and move that tiny box where ever you like to edit the text.

Kind of hard to explain, if you need more help, PM me.

Sorry for the late response. I tried to reply back once, but while installing the forum spell-checker, I lost my posting. *sigh*

Anyways, thanks for the reply, but what I was really looking for was tips on selecting and highlighting text within an email or such. I understand the basics of selecting both the start and end point for a sentence or word, but wondered if there was a trick like the cursor placement trick. Otherwise, my thumbs are just too big to be of much use.

I recall seeing a tip list someone posted here shortly after the Storm's release. Figured it would have made it to the Storm FAQ, but apparently not.
