Leaving aside the Tab/Backtab issue, it always works for me, the entire content of the field is always selectable - as visualised by the dotted rectangle surrounding the field.

If I Backtab into a long text field that contains <a ref…> links I can Shift+F10 on the links and open the links. If I Backtab into a Link or Note icon I can do the same, see attached screen shots.

As I wrote in my opening post:

Quote:
"Qt permitting, could the Shift/F10 context menu be made the same as mouse right click context menu."
I'm at a loss to understand why Qt would do something different if a field is selected via a Backtab as opposed to what it does when the same field was selected a moment earlier via a Tab.

I've given Qt a nickname -- 'Thatcher'!

Curious - did you try the sequence of steps I provided in my last post.
