Or should I say offal. I had reason today to actually USE text. I was looking at a notebook on my phone with the app, and I thought of a todo item to add to it. So I typed it in.

Later, on the tablet, I tried moving that text up a little. No go. So I just wrote it where I wanted. Then I deleted the text. I thought, "Okay, I'll also remove all those blank lines that positioned the text close to where I wanted." When I did that, half of the handwriting rose up over the other half and clear off the page. Undo? No go.

To get the page back, I went to my other tablet--not connected to the wifi, copied the original notebook, connected and synced, then rewrote my todo item. Sheez.

Lesson to myself: NEVER mix text and handwriting. That's useful, right?

Totally agree. Unless I can move a text block like PowerPoint, it is unusable to me. Plus I need to be able to change font styles. I so want checkboxes to work for me, but the text is so small it is unreadable to me, even with “Large” selected in Accessibility options. I’m glad to know this before I purchased a Type Folio. Maybe someday…
