Hi Sergey,

Is there a way to get rounded selections of text like Visual Studio Code editor does?

Not a big deal but I wanted to ask about it.

Sorry, this feature is not supported.
The only mode where it could be implemented easily is drawing semitransparent FireMonkey selection: in this mode, just parameters of Canvas.FillRect need to be changed.
In VCL and non-transparent FMX selection, it would require working with rounded clipping regions. And results will not be very good without antialiasing.

OK, worth asking about it. I was afraid it might be too much change to be worth it. Well, maybe keep it in mind for the future.

Thanks Sergey
