Selecting Text is a joke on iPad

[3DJ]

In Designer v1, I didn't have a problem at all. In Designer V2 it's a horrible experience. what's the trick to select a couple of specific lines in a paragraph? I assume it's broken, or at least for me it is. I can highlight text but if I try to drag the handles to adjust the selection—the pencil draws a black line as if it is trying to access the writing to text... but it just readjusts my selection and not even close to what I am trying to select.

Any tricks or is this a bug?

Thanks,

Jim

No issue for me. Can you provide sample file?

Do you have Scribble turned on in your Apple Pencil settings, maybe try disabling it.

Thanks guys, I think it may be because the text was imported from a Dr and it was horizontally scaled… Just tried selecting text in another document and its better.
