Among so much news of whether there is Keynote in February or if not, that if the Apple Watch and its applications or if Apple issues bonuses or not, it does not hurt that we explain how to jump to a specific line in open text in the OS X TextEdit application.
TextEdit is the very versatile word processor that Apple has included since its inception in OS X. It allows us to create all kinds of documents, includes tools to format, edit and style texts, check spelling, create tables and lists, import graphics, work with HTML and even add music and video files.
Although the application OS X TextEdit It is not widely used by ordinary users of the OS X system, it does not mean that it is not worth it and as we know, Apple has always tried that in all its applications there are a multitude of tricks and tools that make them "all terrain".
As we have indicated, in this article we are going to explain how to go and select from one line to another in a way Quick and easy within a document opened with TextEdit or select a set of lines. The truth is that to be honest, this action is not used by many people, but in the place where I work some colleagues have asked me if it could be done and the answer is that TextEdit does it too.
In order to select a certain line of a text, we must press the cmd + L keys after which a small window appears in which we can enter the line number or the range of lines that we want to be selected.
The failure that we see that this action has is that in TextEdit you cannot put the number of lines that the text has on one side of it to be able to estimate the ones you want to select, something that makes the action that we have told you more complicated to use.
