            Description

            The selection of text does not match the area on which the text is selected with the mouse. All the sudden, the left part of the line is selected thought only a word in a different part of the same line was covered by the mouse.
            This appear on my application and on the viewer as well.
            This issue makes the creation of annotations very difficult.

              The selected text is Appendix 5. I started by selecting from left to right from "Appen". As soon as the mouse reaches the 5, the beginning of the sentence is selected too.

              An example mixed text that is partly made up of optional text that is in nor particular order. Updated the sorting algorithms to try and do a better job at detecting random words on random locations and consolidating them on common lines.

              Marking as fixed.
