Because the <I>start</I> of your selection is already in Sans, Sans is selected and tapping it again does nothing.<BR/><BR/>WORKAROUND: having selected the whole line, if you first change it to some other font (say, Mono) you can THEN change it back to Sans.Glenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14661650090485723755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5586991834325457581.post-52305070558529674982008-08-05T14:12:00.000-07:002008-08-05T14:12:00.000-07:00Hey, can I add a feature request? Your app should ...Hey, can I add a feature request? Your app should sort notes by *creation time* not by last modification time. I know you're just copying what the built-in Notes app does, but what Notes does is <B>wrong</B>!<BR/><BR/>I want to be able to scroll back through my notes making use of temporal memory - notes I took last month should be positioned before notes I took last week should be before notes I took today. That's useful information. If I go back and make a few spelling corrections or change the font or elaborate on a point or delete a line I no longer need in an older note, <B>its position should not change</B>. The fact that anything I touch percolates to the front in Notes means my notes quickly are in essentially <B>random order</B>, which is bad.<BR/><BR/>This problem is bad for Notes - it along with the lack of a search feature renders the app nearly unusable for me - but it's almost worse for your app because you've enabled more things to tweak - changing fonts and rearranging blocks of text using copy/paste. If I *want* to move a note to the top of my MagicPad list, I can use copy/paste to copy the old data to a new note. But auto-percolate should never be the default policy. <BR/><BR/>Thanks!Glenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14661650090485723755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5586991834325457581.post-56896994099261364622008-07-29T06:43:00.000-07:002008-07-29T06:43:00.000-07:00sounds Great !i'm new to Iphone (24 hours ago) and...sounds Great !<BR/><BR/>i'm new to Iphone (24 hours ago) and i come from windows mobile world and it's a shame not to have a cool text editor because i write 2 hours/day on my phone (subway) and right now I can't do that anymore :(<BR/>I write for www.froggydelight.com and it's very important for me.<BR/>I hope this great app will be out soon !<BR/>It's the only condition to me to keep my iphone !<BR/><BR/>great job<BR/>i'm impatientjamais un mot de trophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00246823599192212794noreply@blogger.com
