Continuing the discussion from Lettera Beta Update: Typography settings, Mermaid support, and Typewriter mode:
Good spot, that’s a bug! I think we can delay the scroll a little to allow the double-click selection to register. Thanks for reporting it!
I don’t know how they do it, but Drafts works perfectly in this respect.
In Ulysses a double click selects a word even if the second click lands on a completely different word or area
For what it’s worth, in Drafts, you can double-click anywhere to select and nothing moves; the only time the typewriter position is taken up is when you hit Return. I mean, other than scrolling when you get to the end of a line, as usual with typewriter scrolling.
