Hi Ramy. Have you been able to put the text selection option into the rotor? If so, this should work in an email message, on a safari web page, in a note text field etc. It doesn't seem to work in the messages app if you are reading someone else's message, but if you are composing a message, it works in the edit field. So if you just want to select 2 words, first set the rotor to words, then swipe up or down to the word you want to start selecting from. Then turn the rotor to text selection. Now swipe up or down till it says word selection. Now swipe right and it will speak out the word to be selected. Swipe right again and it selects the next word. Now turn the rotor to edit. Now swipe up or down till it says copy. This copies the selection to the clipboard. Now go to the document or message you want to paste the selection into. You might need to double tap in the edit field to make sure that quick nav is turned off and you are ready to paste into the text area. You might have to double tap a couple of times to make sure you are either at the start or end of the field. Otherwise if you want to paste in the middle of the text, then turn the rotor to words, and swipe up or down to where you want to paste the selection. Now turn the rotor to edit and swipe up or down till it says paste. Finally double tap, and the selected text should be inserted at that point. Hope this explains ok. Cheers Thuy
