I'd say it is currently by design that the hanging indentation part is not highlighted when selecting. But, I understand it feels odd.

I'll check whether there is a lightweight way to detour it.

Well, there are two things happening:

  1. not selecting hanging part of line (normal, expected)
  2. beyond the hanging part selection is no longer working in full lines (bug, unexpected)

For item 2, I tested all my other editors and none of them exhibit this problem.

main.cpp, search for IDM_PASTE and use narrow window size with word wrap activated.

Aha, OK. Now I understand the second issue. Let me see if I can fix it.

Thanks, sorry that my description was not very good.
