Through your reminding, I seem to understand where I was wrong. Therefore, the
problem should not be okular's bug, but my misoperation.

By select comment, I mean underline comments. By clicking on the left and
right, I mean the left and right ends of the underline.

My improper operation is that when I use the underline comment to select a
sentence, I do not invert the underline comment, but double-click to open a
pop-up window to add comments. The error occurs when you double-click. Due to
the mouse movement, I mistakenly selected a character. That is to say, in a
sentence, I not only selected the whole sentence, but also selected a certain
character. When I double-click to pop up the underline comment window, I may
hit the underline of that character or the whole sentence. That's what caused
me the illusion that clicking on the left and right sides of the underline
would bring up different comments. In fact, I added two underscores without
knowing it.

I'm sorry that my Chinglish is not accurate enough, and thank you for your
patience.
