Preview mode selects all after update #511

Closed djordjeandrejevic closed 7 years ago

Hi Simplenote team, nice job for adding highlight support, but I have a problem with new Simplenote 1.0.8.

Before update (version 1.0.7 and lower) I could select particular line of text from the preview/markdown mode and copy it.

Now it selects all the text from the note (as if I pressed CTRL + A in edit mode) or selects none. For example, if I wanted to select test3 part from the note below, I wouldn't be able to do it, unless I switch back to edit mode.

Fix would be highly appreciated.

OS version

Tested on two Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x64 machines and one Windows 10 x64 machine.

Thanks for reporting this @djordjeandrejevic. I was able to reproduce the behavior and we'll make sure we fix this; it wasn't intentionally changed to this behavior.

Okay, one more also related to selecting (although this time it's the edit mode). I wasn't sure whether I should open a new issue, so I'll post it here.

The issue happens when I try to select long text (usually some long URL) starting from the last character and by using a keyboard (Shift + ↑ to be precise). This long text I'm trying to select has to break into a new line and and has to have - character somewhere in the middle. Like the one on the screenshot below.

(you can copy/paste this placeholder text to test it yourself: bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb-bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb)

To reproduce this bug, place your cursor at the end of the text (after last b character) and try to select whole text by using Shift + ↑ on keyboard. The selection will stop as soon as it reaches the - character. Selecting from top to bottom (Shift + ↓) works fine though.

Update: actually this behavior is electron problem, faced the same bug on Skype for Linux.

Can you fix on window version ?

Thanks @taimaiduc - the bug is already reported and should be fixed with #579. If you would like to confirm that you also see a reported bug please leave a :+1: on the opening issue description via the GitHub sticker button

Closing as this should have been resolved in #579. Please reopen if it remains after the v1.1.0 release coming up.
