Hi there. I really struggle to move the cursor when editing text on my galaxy s android phone, it is a sort of touch and guess time-wasting game.
Whenever i need to go back to delete or add text, it gets so frustrating to try to touch the right interval. Any trick?
Many thanks

Clever, how couldnt i think of it? But, stupid me, I've just tried and it doesnt respond. I tried to use 2 fingers to zoom - nothing - and the menu does not include any zoom-in/zoom-out!

this solution is when your using swype:, when your on the txt writing screen with the keyboard on landscape, draw a line down the left side of the keyboard from the swype key down through the shift key and stops at the sym key, this brings up a new keyboard with lots of editing keys
