There are many times during adaptation when I want to edit the contents of the phrasebox after the phrasebox has moved to a new location. The phrasebox content (after it moves) is nicely selected and ready to receive my edits, but the keyboard is not visible, so I can't just start typing to replace the contents of the phrasebox with what I want. I have to tap inside the phrasebox to get the keyboard to come up, but that process looses the selection requiring me to have to reselect the contents or manually move the caret to the right end of the text and manually press the backspace key repeatedly to remove the current text. There are indeed times when I will want to tap to remove a selection and edit the text in place, but often I will want to replace it entirely by just start typing. It would be much more efficient if the keyboard would either (1) appear automatically after the phrasebox moves, and while its contents are selected, or (2) there would be a button on the tool bar with a keyboard image that would work like a toggle to summon the keyboard, or hide it at the user's command. Actually both (1) and (2) would be nice to have for different situations.

Not sure if this is possible, but will investigate.
