Q: When the user selects text in the PDFViewCtrl in the PDFNET SDK for Windows Store Apps, there popup with options (copy, highlight, etc) doesn't show up immediately. The user has to right click or tap on the selected text to bring it up. I would like to change this behaviour so that the popup appears immediately.

A: This can be done by modifying the TextSelect.cs file in the PDFViewCtrlTools project. A modified TextSelect.cs is attached to this post, which can replace the TextSelect.cs file in the PDFViewCtrlProjects and should work out of the box.
