K3 Select and search (feature request)
It seems that as soon as i start moving cursor through page (by clicking on Up or Down) keys i can see dictionary entry for the word after the cursor. Also i can choose to search google for that word. What i expected from K3 and was surprised when i could not - that i can select more than one word and then search google or wikipedia for the selected words.

Actually you can:
Move the cursor to the start of the phrase you want to search for Press 'select' on 5way to mark start Move cursor to end of phrase press the space bar This will copy the phrase to a note dialog. modify if necessary. Note the bottom of the dialog has some buttons with a right-pointing arrow on the right. move the cursor down there and press 'right' on 5way until the wikipedia button appears and is highlighted. Then press 5way to select. |
