            Description

            A client has asked us to enhance the text selection capabilities of the Viewer RI. The current implementation defines a selected region by using a selection box that is created with a mouse press and drag. This approach work OK for paragraph selection but for selecting a sentence it can get a little unyielding.

            The new approach will map the first and last word of a selection and fill in the words in between.
