How to select multiple texts at the same time?

See the attachment video. How to select Aaaaaa, dddddd, and Eeeeee at the same time?

Not possible. You can select "Aaaaaa", "Cccccc" and "Eeeeee" at the same time by holding down Ctrl with the Highlight tool and drawing a box around the entire area, but not "A", "D" and "E" at the same time.

It is possible, though, to combine separate highlights as a single one, after you've created and selected them, but it requires using a custom-made script.
