[Feature request] Start highlighting when clicking inside Notepads from out of focus. #1098

Open WildSnail913 opened 2 years ago

Ive noticed that when I have another window open and focused beside Notepads, then click inside the Notepads window while holding down the mouse and draging the cursor to highlight some text, it doesnt work. I have to click once inside Notepads to focus it and then I can click again and drag to the cursor to highlight text. I.e. it takes 2 clicks.

I'd like to be able to directly highlight from out of focus with 1 click like notepad.exe.

Its not really a big deal if this isnt feasible, just something Ive noticed because I go back and forth between notepad and other windows.

This is a known issue, and I don't find a solution yet.
