Could you explain further how to do it? I still don't get it :( I always just double-tap a word to select it and then drag the selection tabs to expand to what I want. If there's another way I'm interested to hear it.
Hold spacebar to start the cursor. Use 2nd finger tap on the keyboard, the selection markers will show up. Now use the first finger again to move left/right to select stuff.
First time trying it for me but it seems.. odd, maybe need to get used to it.
Ahh, thanks. Selecting that way is so janky for me that I wonder if it's not actually a bug. I tried a number of times and it behaves really weirdly / unpredictably.
When you have activated the cursor move function by long-pressing the space bar, while still pressing the screen, tap another finger on the screen to move into selection mode.
The prior mention of defining the start and end points of the selection is a bit more tricky and may not even be an actual feature, which involves moving the cursor around in a kind of handoff between start and stop point. That’s trickier to describe because it fellas like it may just be a quirky behavior that can be manipulated.
