Ive know that we can copy paste with a long pressing on the screen
but its not so convenient
are their any hot key on the keyboard……that would help a lot
if not……may any professional genius guy make it come true?
Control+c, control+x, and control+v on the dock work as might be expected. Most of the time controo+a does as well but sometimes I have to hit it like 3 times.

truely have found that
now……another problem
how to select by using mouse with "leftclicking + moving"
Honeycomb+ and some apps (Opera Mobile) have very good selection, tap/hold or click/hold a word to select it. Using your fingers to tap/hold or the touch pad to click/hold on the blue bars, will allow you to adjust the selection. This is a lot more flexible than the model used by Windows and X11, and much closer to how Vim and Emacs does it.
Personally I find the touch pad great for adjusting the selection, even if I usually use the finger. In the TF101 (and probably Android in general), using a mouse is just a virtual finger, it should work the same way as your finger. The touch pad becomes much like touching the screen in a way.
Just play around with your device and see what does what. Software wise it's hard to break unless you are flashing something.

I have the latest dock firmware but there is no pinch zoom in any apps, is this normal?
Sent from my Transformer TF101
I've tried the same, it seems all single point does is move the mouse point, and two points you can scroll up and down/side to side. Any more then 2 doesn't seem to do anything. I'm hoping more gestures gets added down the line, but I guess its not too hard to reach up and hit the screen either.
currently the touchpad has limited MT support.
The only multitouch is two fingers in any direction scrolls. nothing else works.
So yes it is normal what your experiencing. Unfortunately for the time being, and possibly forever since asus hasn't commented, you'll always have to use the screen to zoom.
I found that in a browser, double tapping the touchpad zooms in and double tapping a second time zooms out. Just shows that they might be able to unlock more possibilities in the future... Maybe...

Yes, it's back, but using removes the gesture actions that the circle cursor has. Why couldn't they just change the skin without screwing up functionality? Personally, I'm sticking with the circle pointer, but a nice little dot in the center of that circle would be awesome for precision clicks - like when using an RDP client.
I am on prime 1.84 and would like to know how to get the mouse pointer back?

Just a couple of questions about the keyboard, is the auto correction for it not that sensitive? I mean I can use lowercase i and slam the keyboard like so asidhai and nothing happens? I have had a look in settings and it is has auto correction on, so a bit weird why it doesn't seem to be doing much.
Also, it sometimes doesn't work when connected, and I have to push it in a bit more or disconnect and connect again. Assuming this is normal, but just a quick note!

I don't believe there is any kind of auto-correct for typing on the physical keyboard, that comes in to play when you're using the on-screen keyboard. As for the disconnect and connect again issue, I sometimes get that problem, but rarely. My only guess is it has something to do with the TF going into deep sleep, as that is the only time I seem to run into that little bug.
It can be quite annoying, but I guess it is easier to spot them. There are options for auto correct if I beleive correctly, but they don't do anything.

you might want to look into Swift Key X, it has a pretty good auto correct. and if it works like it does on the G2 then it will also work with the dock keyboard.
I've got the phone version, just trying out the tablet version now, thanks for the advice!

Anybody else notice the button to launch the browser will only launch the stock browser? I have the stock browser disabled and use Chrome as my default browser so that button does nothing for me. No big deal, but the real fail is the location of the button to lock the screen! I keep hitting it when I reach for the backspace key. I'm sure as I get used to the keyboard size I will be making fewer typing errors and I will get used to it, but locking the screen every time you overshoot the backspace key is kinda lame.

Would you really label the keyboard as a fail just because of this? I have never hit the lock screen by accident. There is a lot to get used to, coming from a pc keyboard (and android on-screen keyboard) but it's great to have all these feature keys. I really love the keyboard dock...leave it docked at all times.
Yeah, after owning the dock, I wouldn't want to go back to using a tablet without this extra functionality.
Misleading titles annoy me.
Edit: Here is a link for the Dock browser button hack. (Root required to mod certain files) I haven't tried it myself but it should still work for those that have the original TF201 dock. This will allow you to change what browser is launched instead of the native browser.

Now as for your issue with having the lock button on the upper right corner... Good luck with that. Its not a flaw from the device. Its more human error. Adapt evolve... You can do it!!! Haha. I for one love the Dock! Quite the opposite from what your title insinuates.

How is the title misleading? It wasn't intended to be misleading. And even if it is misleading your inflammatory comment is just as annoying. Thanks for the link though, I will look at it for sure.
And whether or not it is human error isn't the point. I know it is human error and I have already adapted to the size of the keyboard. I can proudly say I haven't hit the lock key since I posted this thread. I just wish they would have put a different button in that spot.
Edit: Changed the title of the thread to be more clear.

People ask, "Is that a netbook?" I tell them no, it's an android tablet and pull the screen from the dock. So far this has resulted in oohs, ahhs, and wows. Kinda funny.

You'd really call THAT an ''inflammatory comment''? Oh boy....
OT: I've hit the Sleep button numerous times, and keep hitting it since I go back and forth between my (primarily gaming) desktop at home, the desktops at work and my TF700. It is getting a bit infrequent, but every time I hit it still is a sigh moment. And I keep missing letters like the "a" and "o", and I kee hitting ";" instead of " ' "... but hey, that's clearly my fault.
My wife is a touch typer (or 10-finger blind, or whatever it is called in English ) and she won't even use the hard keyboard because it doesn't provide the feedback she needs, or something like that. Maybe you have primarily the touch typists' aproach, while people like me (who have to look at the keyboard anyway) have less trouble?

I don't look at the keyboard when I'm typing. I got used to this one fairly quickly. I just had to learn the smaller keys and layout. And I definitely know what you mean by a sigh moment.

does anyone else have the same issue as me that the tab key on keyboard doc does not tab fields it just advances the cursor by a couple spaces?
best example is when using the google spreadsheet app, tab does not go from field to field like you would expect. Other times would be when something is looking for a username and password. tab does not advance you to the password field

What do you mean by "auto caps"? There is a Caps Lock key on the keyboard dock (it even has a little LED light on it to tell you when it's engaged), but I'm assuming that is *not* what you are talking about?

I found my auto caps - it's called my little pinky holding down the shift key.
This is what happens when people get too used to soft keyboards.

By auto caps I mean after completing a sentence, the first letter typed would be capitalized. However it appears to be working fine for me in certain word apps.
Thx.
Asbdags: made me laugh. Thanks.
@Rashar: you found theosnwer all by yourself: it's an application feature, and is NOT a feature on the keyboard dock. With software keyboards, it often is. Sounds like typing on an actual keyboard is just not your thing. You'll have to put in the effort of making a character capitalized yourself. Major bummer. You have my sympathy.

Auto caps is not a feature of any hardware keyboard I know of - neither my IBM Model M, nor my Cherry G80, nor the Transformer dock has auto caps. It's annoying anyway because it doesn't know the difference between an abbreviation and an end of sentence.

Get used to sbdags' method.
Auto Caps on a hardware keyboard? That's a new one. That has never existed to begin with. Any Auto-Caps features are software-based, not hardware-based. (guess what, a software keyboard is software!)
