        @cratte I don't think you can change that, it's the common behavior of any textbox. You need a second click to unselect and place the cursor somewhere, or press left or right arrow.

          sometimes not all text is selected automatically but only a random part.
          This is an error i think.
          So there must be the possibility to change this option

            @cratte Here regular web addresses are always fully selected when you click on address bar, no matter the browser.
