Delete digits in iPhone OS 3.0 Calculator
Authored by: fracai on Jul 02, '09 09:28:11AM

The lack of documentation is Apple's style, but the swipe to delete isn't at all.

Swiping is typically for navigating images or alternate views. For the calculator I'd expect the same. If anything, swiping should switch the calculator among hex, octal, decimal, etc. modes.

Add to that that swiping right to left deletes the leftmost digit, causing the display to shift to the left. In the opposite direction of the swipe.

This is an odd interface all around.

Not here.

If I swipe Right to Left or Left to Right it always deletes the right-most digit as Delete on a Calculator should.
