Choose Where to Type Next
On this page
After a Replacement, the cursor sits at the end of the inserted Template. The Cursor Placeholder puts it somewhere else, so you can type the missing part straight away.
If a Template has only one changing detail, use Cursor instead of a Form field. Typing the detail straight into the field is faster.
- Open the Text Snippet.
- Tap in the Template where the cursor should go.
- Tap Cursor in the row of Placeholder buttons.
- Tap Save (Save).
Example
Template for ,track
Your tracking number is Cursor. It can take a day to update.
When you type ,track, Typing Hero inserts the Template with the cursor after is
, ready for you to type the number.
Limits
- A Template can have one Cursor Placeholder. The button is dimmed when the Template already has one.
- A Template with a Command ignores the Cursor Placeholder.
With Detect Keywords after Replacement on, Typing Hero checks for a Keyword immediately before the new cursor position.
