            Bug ID: 421028
           Summary: allow for text selection during review/annotations
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: viktor.marinkov at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I would like to be able to quickly select and copy text while remaining the the
"Review/Annotation" mode. Currently, I am required to ctrl+4 to enter text
select and then F6 to return to Review. These are unnecessary steps and quite
inconvenient for a mouse-heavy workflow such as reading pdfs.

Ideal solution:
Have a smart "Browse/Hand" tool which switches to text selection when hovered
over text like all other pdf viewers.

Second best:
Allow for text selection without exiting Review mode and possible allocate an
additional shortcut without ctrl. Maybe ` as it is before 1?
