    I'm trying to make a text editor. I have a small problem where the selection only expands to the newline rather than to the edge of the page. I have another text editor above mine in the image to show what I mean.

    How can I do this?

      Hi,

      My guess would be that you have to do your own rendering for the selection.

      That said, I would personally not like that a text selection does not allow me to known what lines are empty as the other editor does.
