Highlighter Bug: Fails to select last letter for the last word on a line
SUMMARY
Okular tools like Highlighter fail to select the last letter of the last word
on each line (in the 2nd column). One such pdf document is attached: the bug
pops up in a few more pdf-documents.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open attached pdf document;
2. Browse e.g. to page 9;
3. Select highlighter tool and try to select the last word on any of the lines
in the 2nd column;
OBSERVED RESULT
Highlighter tool misses to select the last letter. It is not possible to select
the last letter even if the mouse is dragged as far right as possible.
It is possible to "fake" the selection of the last letter by "selecting" the
start of the next line: but this reduces productivity quite a lot.
EXPECTED RESULT
Enable selection of last letter of the last word on the respective text-line.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The bug affects both the Highlighter tool, as well as the Line and Squiggle
tools. There is a workaround, albeit quit frustrating when the user wants to
select the last word over-and-over again.
