      If I have a sentence with normal spaces and non-breaking spaces between the words the selection using the ctrl+shift button work differently.

      Sample sentence:
      “All persons, living and dead, are purely coincidental.”

      Put non-breaking spaces around “and” to test it.

      Current:
      If I place the cursor at the beginning of the sentence, hold CTRL+SHIFT then press RIGHT ARROW a couple of times, you can see that the selection works on individual words, except for “living and dead”, these three words are selected in one go.

      Expected:
      Non-breaking space works the same way as normal space for selections.

      thanks
