Hi, I find the easiest way to select text is to use the rotor. You will need to go into the rotor option in your VO settings to activate select text. Then you just make sure the VO focus is at the beginning of what you want to select, rotor to select text, flick up or down until you get to the amount you want to select by, and then flick right and left to select and deselect. Once you have it selected, rotor to edit, flick up or down until you hear copy, and doubletap on that. You can then go to where you want to paste, rotor to edit and flick to paste.
