"alter the current selection forward by a word" keyboard shortcut also turns the page

[davidhcje]

Problem:
when I press the keyboard shortcut to "alter the current selection forward by a word" in the viewer, it turns one page forward in the same time. And when I use "alter the current selection backward by a word", it turns one page backward too.

Settings:

• I use the default keyboard shortcut, ctrl + shift + arrowright, for this action.
• page layout is set to 2.
• The problem only happens on the right page, meaning, when I select text in the left page, it doesn't turn the page.

It doesnt have anything to do with the individual keyboard shortcut. Basically when the selection is altered the viewer makes sure the selection starts on the left of the screen, so there is maximum scrope to expand it.

Since this feature is a little bit counter-intuitive, and since user can scroll mouse wheel to turn page while selecting text, I'm wondering if you could add an option to turn this feature off?

Sorry if you find this a duplicate of my last reply, since I think no one has seen my last revision on it.

Simply put, is it possible to add an toggle that allows readers to turn off the feature described below?
