Hi, I have just discovered that if you set your rotor two, four example, words, then only one word at a time will be selected and copied to the clipboard using the quadruple three finger. Tap.
This seems to work anywhere. That is, not only in edit fields but even when I am reading an email and wish to copy one word or one line from it.
