Description

@justinmc

Use case

Native Android Scribe supports several stylus gestures that make editing text with a stylus much easier. Flutter should support them too.

Proposal

Flutter's Scribe support should include the same gestures that are supported on Android:

  • select
  • selectRange
  • delete
  • deleteRange
  • insert
  • insertMode
  • joinOrSplit
  • removeSpace

As well as previewing:

  • delete
  • deleteRange
  • select
  • selectRange
