Hi Tim,
I'd discovered this feature - by accident - and I can identify text
and 'copy' it.
However 'paste' doesn't work inside Blogspot.
What is curious, and irritating, is that whilst there is, above the
workspace, the usual row of buttons including one for importing
pictures. there is nothing for uploading text!

Are you using a browser to do this? Not sure what you mean by 'inside
Blogspot'. Comments on a post? New blog on Blogger? Have you tried the
Blogger app?
I don't ever remember cut and paste problems with the app. I avoid using
my Android tablet Browsers with Web2 apps though I have managed to edit a
spreadsheet in Google docs! Though the good browsers can handle things,
they are a bit slow. Newspaper web sites are bad enough.. but I find
editing within browsers to be a bit tiresome, even with a six core
desktop.
