While using this piece of CSS for a floating toolbar on inline selections,

p:-oxy-selection-inside {
    -oxy-floating-toolbar: 
        oxy_button(actionID, 'bold')
        oxy_button(actionID, 'italic')
        oxy_button(actionID, 'underline')
}

the toolbar is not displaying when selecting text with the keyboard (CTRL + RIGHT or CTRL + SHIFT + RIGHT etc). It does show up though, if text is selected with mouse or touchpad.
What could be the reason for that?

Kind regards
Oliver

Hi,

Our current version of the application does not support the floating toolbar appearing on keyboard selection but you can have access to any action on the toolbar using shortcuts. I've already raised an internal issue to address this specific concern and our development team will evaluate the feasibility and potential implementation of displaying the floating toolbar when using keyboard selection. While I can't provide an immediate timeline for when this feature might be available, please rest assured that when the issue will be fixed we'll update this forum thread with more details.

Best regards,
Irina Nadolu

Thanks, Irina, for updating me on this and placing the internal issue. I think it would be of great help, if keyboard selection would be available for this.
Kind regards
Oliver
