Touch Highlighting on iOS
Hello! I've used the Logos Bible App on iOS along with the Windows app for years. Today on the iOS app I went to copy and a verse from 2 Corinthians so that I could then paste it in another app. Note that the verse in question was already highlighted with a couple of different types of highlights.
As I selected the verse, the iOS app now applied yet another type of highlighting (apparently the most recent I had used in the Windows app, which on the surface sounds pretty cool) but the result was that it disrupted my existing highlighting and further more I couldn't simply copy and paste the text (at least from what I could see). I found sharing options, but not copy and paste. These are distinctly different.
I researched and found that this is called "Touch Highlighting." I certainly understand how it could be a benefit for some, but for the way I use the apps cross platform it is disruptive. Is there a way to disable Touch Highlighting on iOS?
Thank you!

Sorry for the false alarm! I didn't realize there was a separate settings panel for "view settings". Once I discovered that, I found the option to disable that feature.
Thanks for all you do!
Blessings,

If you have touch highlighting enabled, you will need to press and hold a single word to bring up handles to make a selection. You can then copy.

You can tap-touch-drag (touch, release, touch, drag) to select if swipe to highlight is enabled. You also select the text of a highlight by tapping the highlight, then tapping the caret at the end of the menu that comes you.
