What gesture to use for select the text?

I tried use selected text in PdfViewer. But it works very unstable. It turns out to select the text only after several attempts. Maybe I'm doing it wrong :). Which gesture should I use to select text?

Hi Robert,  

Text selection can be done in all Xamarin platforms using the below steps. 

  1. Long press any word until selection bubbles appear at the top-left and bottom-right corners of the word’s bounds
  2. Drag the top-left bubble to select the rest of the text in the left and top directions
  3. Drag the bottom-right bubble to select the rest of the text in the right and bottom directions

Please find the screenshot below.  

 

Best,
