Hi all, I moved from a 7 to the new SE. At least to this point it has been a very positive experience for me. Since I had the 7 and not the plus I was even able to keep my same phone case. :) I especially like the fact that my bluetooth now works and I can connect new devices. I would say that

Once you find the scroll bar you can flick up or down with one finger to adjust the percentage value, this should work on the vertical scroll bars or the horizontal scroll bars. See if that helps? > On 12/06/2020, at 09:29, Michael Marshall wrote: > > hey all, > Running into a very interesting
