Highlighting periods at end of sentence - made easier?
Any iPad user can attest that highlighting the period at the end of a sentence is a minigame of precision... compared to say the kindle app that detects the period and makes highlighting easier.. could this be made easier for logos?

whole sentence PLUS period.

I'd want smart selection to understand that if I'm only highlighting a part of the sentence, to not include the period.
Thanks to FL for including Carta and a Hebrew audio bible in Logos 9!

I do relate to the OP’s point. But I find ‘smart selection’ an oxymoron, period.
Well, I think that is the solution in any case. I hate “smart selection,” but it sounds like that is what he’d want.
have you tried turning it on?

I can confirm that I've noticed the same thing - a propensity to select the word after the period. I often select the whole sentence and then just as I release the mouse/pen, it jumps to include the next word, and I have to start all over again. I have switched to character selection because I can't get "smart" selection to ever select characters, which is sometimes necessary when selecting the triconsonantal root of a Hebrew word. I would have thought "smart" selection would prioritize sentence divisions, then word divisions, but would still allow selecting individual characters.

I can also confirm. Trying to highlight a chunk of text to include its period in the iOS mobile app can drive anyone mad. I’ve given up at this point

It occurred to me that my comments were regarding the Desktop app, not the mobile version. I don't really notice any tendency to change the final selection in Android.
