Selectable text not working

[TheBestMoshe]

When I dig into the code, it seems like the text is set to be selectable by default, however, the generated code is just RichText widget and not a SelectableText.rich widget.

Can we get proper support for selectable text, and as a bonus, if we can pass in toolbarOptions that would be even better.

Hi,
SelectableText.rich only supports TextSpan， but some tag widgets are made up of WidgetSpan， So I can only use SelectableText

Now v1.0.8 supports whether to enable selectable in PConfig 😄

Thanks! This fits my primary use case.

Is this why selections can't go between strong (bold) and regular text within the <p> tags?

yes, if SelectableText.rich supports WidgetSpan ，this issue will be solved

Hey, amazing package thanks.

I am facing a problem ( it might be an expected behaviour ).
Initially , I selected multi lines of text with different tags( headings, lists) and copy the selected text.
When i pasted the text elsewhere, the formatting is not being maintained.

Can you please look into this?

Hi @Shreedhar73 , currently, the markdown_widget utilizes SelectionArea to implement the copy function. Indeed, it has the issue you mentioned. It may be necessary to explore whether there can be extensions in this regard in the future to see how to achieve the effect you described.
At the same time, you can also keep an eye on this issue: flutter/flutter#104548
