Determine whether drag-selection of text works, both from dead space, and from within text.
Initial Conditions
View the below-linked document.
Steps/Description
[from white space to white space, vertically]
- Move the mouse pointer to the white space above "Hi!".
- Click and hold the mouse button, drag to the white space below the first line of text, and release the mouse pointer
- Clear the selection (e.g. click anywhere else within the document)
[from white space to white space, horizontally] - Move the mouse pointer to the immediate left of the word "Hi!"
- Click and hold the mouse button, drag to the last character on the line, and release the mouse pointer.
- Clear the selection (e.g. click anywhere else within the document)
[from white space to text, with line breaks] - Move the mouse pointer to the immediate left of the word "another" (in the second line of text)
- Click and hold the mouse button, dragging to the last character of the word "final" (in the 3rd line), and release the mouse pointer.
Expected Results
After step #2, the first line of text should be selected in its entirety.
After step #4, the first line of text should (again) be selected in its entirety.
After step #8, the middle of the second line (beginning with the entire word "another") should be selected, through the middle of the third line (ending with the entire word "final".)
