Summary | 0000430: Text selection issues | ||||||||||||
Description | I'm having a hard time selecting text with the mouse. Maybe it's me, maybe not. If you see this as a Feature Request please move it. To select some text I have to click and then drag the mouse in any direction. -> This only works I the mouse cursor is inside a text and not above a hyperlink. a) If the mouse is above a hyperlink and I press the mouse button the link is immediately opened (this is unusual in other browsers but seems acceptable.) b) If the mouse cursor is not inside a text at all (eg. at the end / beginning) NetSurf simply won't start selecting anything. Instead it will start dragging / scrolling the page around. That way you cannot copy an email address that stands for alone or select a complete text from begin->end or other way round. You can see it by trying to select the Word "NetSurf" in the upper left corner. I've also attached a very simple example. Double clicking a word normally selects it up to an including the next space character. This does not work in NetSurf. | ||||||||||||

Text selection has been improved with the RISC OS frontend since you reported this issue. Can you try with a current CI build and see if the problem is reproducible? |

No feedback from reporter, although I am assigning this if its not reproducible please feel free to close as such |

HTML text selection is a bit dodgy. Won't be touched until the layout engine is rewritten. |
