Selecting Blocks with Scrolling

I can't select a long section of a document because when I click and drag across multiple blocks, the selection is not maintained as the page scrolls up or down.

Blocks can be selected when scrolling now.

Can't drag to copy across multiple lines

I'd like the copy multiple lines within my page. Unfortunately, I can only drag to copy what's within the current line. Please consider copying up or down a page traversing as many lines as the user needs.

Text selection is currently limited to a single block. I believe the workflow would be improved if text selection could span across multiple blocks, just like when selecting paragraphs in a word processor.

Steffen Bleher: This is not fixed. I doubled checked to make sure my Capacities app was updated (and I also tried this on the web app) and I'm still having the same problem with long texts.
Sample video I just took is here:

Steffen Bleher: I too still experience this issue. I don't agree that it is fixed yet. There are quite a few similar feedback also shared as new threads. Please re-open this issue.
Jason Brewster captured the problem I'm experiencing perfectly. Please find the thread from Feb 2nd, 2023. This is their link, hopefully it is okay to re-share: https://www.loom.com/share/b133cf49ed2742a6bb5e13369573b5ae

A humble suggestion: The selection should occur for the "rendered" content, not while the editor in the blocks/editing mode.

Would love to see this prioritized. It's very difficult working with large bodies of text. The text selection is super buggy. Sometimes I get individual text, sometimes I get the whole block. As someone pointed out below with their Loom video, selecting elements off screen by scrolling is impossible.

100% agree with this, disrupts my work flow & have to figure out ways to grab all of my text

Cannot drag and select text on pages. Works on calendar pages, but not pages created.
