And all these years I have been using Control-C and Control-V, when all I needed to do was Right-Click. Thanks |

Re: Can you save a post draft? Another less involved way would be to occasionally highlight what you have written up to a point, then click the right button on your mouse. A menu will come up and one of the options is "Copy" - hit "Copy" and whatever you wrote up till that point will be saved, and then can be recovered by right clicking the mouse again and choosing "Paste". I believe whatever you "save" in this manner will be there as long as your computer is not turned off or rebooted. - *** I just saw JJ recommended the same thing! If I'm getting into a longer post, I will save my post in this manner after every couple of paragraphs, just in case something happens along the way. |

Learned the hard way too many times. A very good alternative is to compose your post first in a word processor, then do the same copy process in the word processor before you respond to the LCD post. I've noticed that you usually have 24 hours to edit your post including deleting it (pick the edit button on the lower right corner of your post first, then edit away and save it again). And, even after you can't edit it Unto Him is good about deleting any posts you regret later if you just request it with your Post number in the thread you posted the bad post in. |

My iPad won't store my reply if I go to another tab and return -- very frustrating. You can go back and edit, but not delete the post, so I just erase everything and put a bunch of dots to meet quota. |

Re: Can you save a post draft? I will copy and paste from Word if it is a longer post. But sometimes the formatting from Word doesn't copy over right. |

Can you save a post draft? Several times I've been working on a reply but I get timed out. The last time I was timed out and the redirect link after logging back in just led me to a blank page and I lost a lengthy reply. Is there a way to save a post draft-in-progress that I am missing? Or should I make it a practice of writing in Word and pasting it over when I'm done? Also, if I go to reply to something and then reconsider, is there a "discard" or "trash" button I'm missing, or do I just navigate away? Thanks! |
