How to disable scroll while selecting text?

[markusait]

I would like to disable scrolling while selecting text since it makes text selection very difficult. I've tried loading custom js event listener here and here with no success.

Please see the video below which shows the issue

I found the solution: Set the Duration of the LongPressGestureRecognizer to < 1 milliseconds [here](https://github.com/Mantano/iridium/blob/fcc2e2e690276e2a1ce412d3c15ee813b7c13354/components/navigator/lib/src/epub/widget/webview_screen_state.dart#L209)

It can be done like this LongPressGestureRecognizer(duration: Duration(milliseconds: 1));

My guess is that when text is selected in a Flutter app, a LongPressGestureRecognizer is used to start the text selection process. If the user moves their finger while the long press gesture is being recognized, the gesture recognizer will interpret this as a scroll gesture and scroll the page.

By setting the duration property to Duration(milliseconds: 1), you're preventing the LongPressGestureRecognizer from interpreting the finger movement as a scroll gesture. This is because the long press gesture is recognized almost immediately, and the text selection process starts before the user has a chance to move their finger.

This makes it easier to select text, but it also changes the behavior of the long press gesture. If you want to use a long press gesture for other purposes in your app, you might need to adjust the duration to a longer value.

Setting the Duration to < 1 second can actually lead to issues with scrolling. Instead I added a VerticalDragGestureRecognizer and it worked as intented:

         gestureRecognizers: {
           Factory<WebViewHorizontalGestureRecognizer>(
               () => webViewHorizontalGestureRecognizer),
           Factory<VerticalDragGestureRecognizer>(
               () => VerticalDragGestureRecognizer()),
           Factory<LongPressGestureRecognizer>(() {
             return LongPressGestureRecognizer();
           }),
         },
