Designs
If we could use the native method, we'd do so, so, instead, we have to mimic it, much as we do with the Android Menu.
This page here has a description of the behavior: http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3-highlights.html
One-touch word selection and copy/paste
When entering text or viewing a web page, the user can quickly select a word by press-hold, then copy to the clipboard and paste. Pressing on a word enters a free-selection mode — the user can adjust the selection area as needed by dragging a set of bounding arrows to new positions, then copy the bounded area by pressing anywhere in the selection area.
For text entry, the user can slide-press to enter a cursor mode, then reposition the cursor easily and accurately by dragging the cursor arrow. With both the selection and cursor modes, no use of a trackball is needed.
Ian will be creating the necessary visual assets.
