Delete text in reply box.

Too obvious!

Much too obvious!!

Mind you, I would find it more intuitive to click on a picture of a disk when I wanted to save something - not when I did not want it to be saved - Maybe there should be a disk with a cross over it!

Kind Regards, John

I often wondered what that floppy disk picture was for!

I note that option is not available under edit. If you want to completely delete the last abusive post that you have done, for example.

Same here. Having now had it brought to my attention, I wonder what the 'Save Draft' option does. I've just had a little play, but that's made me none the wiser.

As stated the disk icon is the one you want. You can remove the saved draft this way. The draft is auto saved periodically. But if you want to force it to save that's what the save option is for, e.g. if you wanted to browse somewhere else and comeback later, it saves you waiting for the auto-save.

Thanks. If one uses that to 'remove any saved draft', it does not delete what is currently in the reply window. Does that mean that one has to manually delete any text in order to prevent it being subsequently 'auto saved' again?

That seems to have worked.

So delete text first AND then delete draft.
