can not select and copy text in highlighted text

The cursor stops at the edge of the highlighted text, making it impossible to copy a portion of the selected highlighted text segment.

Hold Option/Alt to select text under a highlight or underline annotation.

Can you make a video?

Appimage is not maintained by Zotero. You should first try with the official tarball.

Which version of Zotero are you using? In old versions, you needed to hold Shift to select text under annotations.

latest, shift is also not working. maybe this is only happened on linux

No, everything works fine on Linux too.

For me, Alt + Super works on Linux:
