Virtual Keyboard Gestures

From Internet Tablet Talk

There are some gestures you can use to help while entering text using the virtual keyboard. There are 5 that I know of. All of them involve tapping any key on the keyboard then dragging in a certain direction. In only one gesture does it matter where you tap.

  • Enter: Tap Down
  • Space: Tap Right
  • Backspace: Tap Left
  • Shifted Character: Tap on a character then drag Up. The shifted version of that character is written.
  • Wiggle Delete: Tap and move left and right. Each movement deletes a character backwards, as though pressing backspace repeatedly. A fast way to delete a lot of text. (Of course, you must go left first, then right, left, right, ...)
