Annotations: Selecting text on next page 'mid-roll' causes jump to previous page #4

Hey, excellent package - flawless scrolling, huge improvement, will now be part of my daily setup, thank you!

The only issue I have detected so far is when I am "mid-roll" between two pages (e.g., page 10 and 11) and I try selecting text on the next page (page 11) the pdf-view buffer jumps back to the previous page (page 10) and selects text on that page, instead of the region I was trying to select.

Thanks for reporting this issue! I have noticed this myself also. Indeed, I should (and will) mention under 'Issues' that most pdf-tools-modes seem to work somewhat okay, but do not work flawlessly at all. However, there are a few reasons why the cause of such bugs are not easy to find. Unfortunately, I don't have the time available to sort these things out. I hope some other enthusiasts will help out (either with contributions or donations).

I have fixed this issue on my fork now. At least for me text selection works on any displayed page. See https://github.com/dalanicolai/image-roll.el/issues/19#issue-1773304146 for details.
