scan breaks selection on apostrophe
Closed this issue · 3 comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. enable scanning
2. select a word containing an apostrophe
The string submitted for lookup should be the entire word selected, e.g.
t'eboninzun. Instead, the string begins immediately after the first apostrophe,
e.g. eboninzun. This is a problem in languages in which apostrophe is a regular
letter. I can't find any configuration option that controls this.
The problem is observed in stardict (and GoldenDict) under GNU-Linux Ubuntu
14.04.1 LTS.

You need to move mouse to select it. Double click will only select a portion of
it.
StarDict just read the selection, and the selection is not decided by stardict,
but the application widget, such as gtk or qt.
This is not a bug!

It still seems to be a bug in that apostrophe inappropriately breaks words, but
I take your point that the problem is not in stardict itself. Thanks.
