Well, it appears that QTextCursor requires that the insertion point be at one of the two end points of the selection range. True, QTextCursor does appear to support "complex" (disjoint) selections, but that model doesn't fit with Leo's model for text widgets. So it appears that what we have is the best can be done. That's too bad, because vim itself allows the cursor to move along a line in response, say, to t commands, even though the entire line remains selected. For now, though, Visual Line mode appears to work well enough... Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
