[Q] how to cut & paste with stylus? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried out a Galaxy Note in a shop the other day and couldn't figure out how to select then copy/cut & paste text using the stylus. This was in the stock browser in web forms (in a CMS).
I tried long touches on the screen with the stylus with and without clicking the button on the stylus, but neither seemed to do anything.
How does it work? (assuming select, cut/copy and paste is actually possible with the stylus)

Works like finger long hold on a word then a menu pops up (cut,copy,paste,clipboard)
ON ICS
Here a SS from it

Cut and paste
Is there any way to take a screen capture of a selected protion of the screen using the s-pen? I find it a hassle to do a full screen capture then crop. Thanks in advance

Palm contacts plugin - today screen

I was looking at a friends Palm 750w and on the today screen it has a box that you can start typing names or numbers in and as you type it works like the contacts works (reducing the list of contacts down). The only difference is it's on the Today screen which is nice. Does anyone have a plugin for this? Thanks for the help.
PocketBreese 5.4 from sbsh.net allows you to add a tab with contacts on your today screen. There are 8 abc buttons at the bottom of the tab, and when you press a series of blocks it reduces the list to the people with that sequence of letters (sort of like on the HTC Dialer with the on screen number pad). You can try it for free for 14 days, check it out. It Doesn't work with the built in keyboard though.

I think the file I am looking for is: DialLookupPlugin.dll
Does anyone have it?

[Q] Simple Number Pad

How do I get the keypad from eclair to use in current ROMs? Here's a picture of what it looks like (It makes it MUCH easier to push numbers when adding contacts):

I also know that I could just add contacts here: http://i55.tinypic.com/2rdf3aa.png but I prefer being in my phone-book/contacts menu to add Contacts through there.
.... number pad found in ROMs now:

[Q] Where's the shape recogniser?

Apologies in advance if I've missed this but have searched.
In some of the Samsung promo vids it shows a shape recogniser within the S Memo (or S Note) app. I'm using LPY ICS stock and for the life of me, I can't find it.
The tool I'm talking about lets you draw a rough circle or square with the S Pen then converts it to a perfect geometric shape.
Any ideas?
In S-Note, the icon I believe is defaulted to Formula Match, just touch this icon, may have to do it twice, to get this pop up menu, where you can then select "Shape Match".
I tried this with S-Memo, and did not see this option, so it must only work with S-Note. I hope this helps.

Thank you, feel a bit of a spanner as I totally missed that but very much appreciate the help!
Need to draw room plans at work and that will be really useful.
Thanks again.

[Q] Any way to change 'one handed operation - reduce screen size' shortcut?

I have smaller hands and I've found the 'reduced size' mode for one handed operation is extremely useful when holding the phone with one hand. However, the shortcut gesture to turn it on it's weird: you swipe from the border into the center, and then back to the border. While you do this this gets registered on the running app and things can get messed up.
Does anyone know a way to have a different shortcut? Like double press the home key, or something similar..
Thanks!

Enable the settings in the first picture, then you get a hidden sidebar which can be opened. Press on the button and it will automatically make the screen reduced without swiping back and forth.
Thanks! That works

Ok, I found my answer and here it is. It's a hidden menu, just dial *#2663*# and it would take you to the hidden menu and just hit TSP FW UPDATE and you're good to go.
