Hi
I have kobo aura one with nightly build installed koreader-kobo-arm-kobo-linux-gnueabihf-v2015.11-1457-g7feea40.zip.

The highlighting feature is awesome in epub files, but not accurate. It is very hard to select words, especially at the end of the page. If I select from up to the bottom of the page - it will not show at all the option to hightlight.
What I usually do, it select from the bottom of the page go up, then it will show highlight option (of course I have to hide status bar, cause selecting from the bottom it triggers status bar).
Sometime, some words even though they are inside the selected paragraph are not grayed out for highlighting though when I check in exported file they are included.
However, I am still using Koreader, way better than nickel, even with the pain of highlighting.
Hope someone is working on this feature.
