Bug or operator error?

Post by necromancer »

Have noticed that if Highlight Text Tool has been used on words then Select Text does not make Copy Text available. Only workaround seems to be copy first THEN highlight. :(

The secret is to select more than the highlighted text, and delete the bit you don't want afterwards.

"Secret" is right! Nefarious but it does work.
