You see, thats the problem! They are too small in comparison with my finger. If I put my finger on this tiny blue thing, my fingers covers already after zooming 2-3 line of text. I can't see where is the handler. Now as someone put it over the text, situation is even worse what i reported in another bug: How can you place a handler over the text if your finger comes always from bottom of the screen?
The correct solution is: 1. A handler big enough to "get" it with a finger as in my photo 2. We can't cover a whole handler! It has to be longer so that we can still see some part of it and what it does. This way we get precision. The text should be selected or cursor steered OVER a handler so that we don't cover everything as it takes place at the moment. Because of the handlers that are to small we cover our job with relatively to the screen (even by M10) size HUGE finger. And my finger are not the bigger ones that one can have. I try to do what You wrote. It is impossible. See a photo taken on M10. Now what about E4.5? I think my photo says everything. Now really try the same on Android to see how it should work. ** Attachment added: "image20160805_024237465.jpg" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1540108/+attachment/4714409/+files/image20160805_024237465.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-ui-toolkit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1540108 Title: Blue dots for text marking/placing a cursor are too small Status in Ubuntu UX: New Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I mean the blue dots that are visible in the photo. Ok my hands are not the smallest but I saw already bigger ones. I can not place the cursor in the text where I want to as well as mark/highlight the text to cut or copy. On Android these dots are big raindrops. I have no problem. In Ubuntu it simply doesn't work at all without a touchpen. These dots are too tiny. -------------- I'm updating the bug with an additional information which is actually another problem which You can see in the photo in a comment #3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1540108/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
