Hide tags button?

RE: Hide tags button?
Why not just add the damn hide button right in the editor, shouldn't be too hard.

The code is dead simple: it's hide and /hide in brackets.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

A single touch or click is easier than typing it every time especially when hiding things in multiple quotes. There is the 'imgfit' tag too.

I would have thought that typing the code would be easier when there's no button for it. But maybe that's just me.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

bbcode insert is great because it works even in the quick reply. It's all a right click away.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

It's a bitch to type in hide tags on an iPad. You have to hit the special character menu button twice to even get to the screen where the square brackets keys are located, and to create the close tags you have to hit the special character button twice to get to the square brackets, then once again to go back to the other special characters menu for the forward slash.

Here's the procedure for doing it:

special character menu button > special character menu button > open square bracket > return to Keyboard screen > type HIDE > special character menu button > special character menu button > close square bracket

return to Keyboard screen > Type message you want hidden

special character menu button > special character menu button > open square bracket > special character menu button > forward slash > return to Keyboard screen > type HIDE > special character menu button > special character menu button > close square bracket

Consequently, when I'm on my iPad I avoid formatting like the plague. (I guess Ebola would be a more timely disease to avoid right now) :p

Toss that iPad in a fire and roast some marshmallows on it.

Sounds like an iPad problem, not a forum problem.
