Looks like the new text selection function, with the handles at each end of the selected text, only lets you select one word, even though it appears that more words were selected. At least this is what happens when you try to copy a phrase.
Thank you for reporting the problem. Can you explain precisely what you're doing, because the program is obviously misunderstanding your selection gesture. I manage to copy a phrase OK by doing:
1) Long-tap (or right click) on a word. The word is selected.
2) Drag selection handle to extend the selection over more text.
3) Tap (or left-click) on selected text or selection handle. A menu pops up.
4) On the menu, choose 'Copy'. All the text is copied.
Presumably you are using some different (but entirely reasonable) gesture to select and copy text, and Freda is not understanding you. Please let me know how I need to change the program.
