Selectable Text #142

Closed Gankra closed 12 years ago

A request from up on high.

This would require a fairly substantial modification of the current text rendering. We'd either have to come up with some insane system for detecting where the text is in the canvas, track a bunch of mouse shit, and then do a whole mess of extra magic.

OR we can just implement what @ikkonoishi was doing with #60 to have the text just be in divs absolute-positioned over the canvas. This would yield superior text performance as well, in theory.

Eh... don't really need this now.

What happened? I agree it's not really necessary.

With hyperlinks we can accomplish the behaviour we wanted. Also even without hyperlinks we can just display a tinyurl they can type.
