As far as I can see, paragraphs currently support *both* kinds of selection: 1) Text selection is reported via the AT-SPI/ATK Text interface. 2) Paragraphs can also have children, e.g. an image (anchored as character and located inside of the paragraph), and that child can be selected (or not), and reports the "selected" state accordingly. @joanie: What's the recommended way to expose that on the a11y layer if not via the Selection interface? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
