Hwy, can any help, I am writing a big essay - using the documents programme on the R11 chromebook.

Frustratingly every time i go to edit / retype words within the work, the cursor deletes forward, and rewrites over the original work i have written. Which i do not want happen.

Does anyone know how to undo this. And using arrows isnt do-able, as its a 3,500 word essay, i just want to know how to un-insert this on the keyboard setting?

Anyone know?😀

    Which R11 model do you have? The full model number should be on the same sticker as your serial number and be something like CB5-xxx-xxxx. Typically insert is toggled with a Search-Period key combo.

    Hi thanks for reply ;)

    Its is, CB5 - 132T- C8L7

    Is the search key the one with the magnifying glass - and is the period key the full stop?If that is correct - i tried that and it didn't work - hmmm

    Any pointers most appreciated.

    Yes to both, the magnifying glass is search and the full stop "." is the period.
