How to hold the spacebar for continuous spacing (like on PC) on Samsung/Android?

Whenever I hold the spacebar, it just goes 1 space and does continuously space like on laptops. I would like this to be similar when on my mobile, so how can I do this? I've looked in actions for touch and hold space bar; the only two options are voice input or cursor control (currently in use). I have tried this action w/ and w/o cursor control, yet still it only takes me to 1 space.

As far as I'm aware this isn't an option with the Samsung Keyboard.

I have mine set like yours i.e cursor control.

Other keyboards like gBoard etc I'm not too sure about but I don't think so @LiquidSnake

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

Hi

You can't !!!

There is a work round.

In text shortcuts set a shortcut for "s"

ie "space" 

Type a full stop (period) followed by as many spaces as you want followed by a full stop.

You can then insert the space whilst typing and the full stops can be deleted if required, either way it's a lot fewer taps than using the space bar to create a large space  😎
