Hello, When I open a footnote and I want mark the entire text I have a problem. I put the cursor at the start of footnote text, then press shift key and down arrow key, then with right arrow key I mark until final point of footnote. All OK. But if I press a key one more time, for error, marked zone continue from top of footnote box and I lost control on marked zone. I need cancel mark and make all again from start. Regards. Marcelo
Lyx 1.4 does not support selections that spans "half a footnote and something outside it as well". So whenever you select through the boundary of a footnote, you end up selecting the entire footnote inset. The same goes for all other insets, such as tables and boxes. This makes sense, for if you were able to make such a selection, what would happen to cut/copy+paste? Clearly, a cut should not remove the footnote itself if only some of the contents is removed. But how about pasting then? Should that create a new footnote? Or should you only be able to paste such a cut into another footnote? Helge Hafting
