A hold on the block you're writing in

Animated
A hold on the block you're writing in

Hold a paragraph you are in the middle of writing and it lifts now too. Until today the one block in your manuscript that refused to move was the one you were writing in — which is to say the one you had just tapped to read, and so most of them. You held your finger there, nothing happened, and nothing said why.

No magnifier over the words you're moving

The hold is a beat longer than it was, and your phone stays out of it. Text used to start selecting itself under your finger while you waited, the magnifier swelling over the very words you meant to carry. Once a block was up, dragging it across the page left a trail of highlighted lines behind it.

A pause before the block follows

A lifted block waits a moment before it follows you, and the page brings it to the middle of the screen while it waits — so you can see what you are carrying, with room to take it either way. Hold a paragraph near the bottom edge and you no longer begin with nowhere to go but up. The page travels under it at a walk rather than a bolt — it used to cross a screenful of manuscript while you were still reading where to put the thing down.

A paragraph carried to the top of its section stops there, and the heading it stopped against comes into view to say so. Before, it halted with that heading just off the top of the page: the paragraph refused to go further and nothing on screen told you what it had run into.

When a drawing is taken down, you are told

When a drawing is taken down, you are told

Readers can flag a drawing you added, and enough flags take it off the page. Your own manuscript went on showing it to you anyway, as if nothing had happened — your page and everyone else's had parted ways without a word. Open your manuscript and the place where it stood says so: removed, and why. The artwork is still yours to keep, so save a copy to your phone before you clear the space and it leaves with you.

Drag and drop in your manuscript

Animated
Drag and drop in your manuscript

Press and hold a paragraph you are not writing in and it lifts off the page, yours to carry. The blocks it passes make room for it, opening the gap where it will land, and the page travels under your finger when the place you have in mind is still off the screen. Let go and it settles into the gap. Hold a heading instead and the manuscript folds to its headings alone, so a whole section moves as one line, then opens again around it.

Steady page when a drawing moves

Move a drawing past a heading in your manuscript and the paragraphs under it hold still. Before, they leapt the height of the drawing the moment you tapped the arrow and then slid back into place, so the page flinched at exactly the moment you were deciding where the drawing belonged. The drawing now travels alone, and the rest of the page stays where you left it.
