--- Comment #11 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- (In reply to LeroyG from comment #5) > I think that there must be consistency between the selection of words and > paragraphs. I believe that *this* consistency is unimportant; jumping through different entities (characters/words/paragraphs/pages) would not be confusing, if they are a bit different (in the end, the entities themselves are different). What is important is the consistency between Crtl+Shift+Right and Ctrl+Right, i.e. selection vs movement in the same direction. IIUC, the current behavior makes it convenient for users to move through the document word-by-word using keyboard, and selection follows this. Indeed, when you want to select several words, you would do it faster if you don't need to press keys again just to skip the space between words. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
