Abstract
Techniques and systems are provided for glyph-aware text selection. For instance, a glyph selection system can detect that a user has selected a glyph within a user interface. The glyph selection system can highlight the glyph and/or a region encompassing the glyph to communicate, to the user, that the glyph is selected. This highlighted region can be determined based on the shape and/or outline of the glyph. For example, the glyph selection system can determine bounds (e.g. coordinates) of the glyph in order to highlight a region within the user interface that fully encompasses the glyph and does not include portions of unselected glyphs. In some cases, the highlighted region may be rectangular. Alternatively, the highlighted region may be non-rectangular, such as a border defined by the outline of the glyph.
