Hi.
Unfortunately canvas text are not selectable by default. This is not a limitation for Adobe Animate only.
The workarounds are:
- Use the a Label component or a TextInput component under Window > Components > User Interface;
- Create HTML DOM text elements editing the main .html file generated on the output;
- Create HTML DOM text elements using JavaScript;
- Use JavaScript to code a custom selection feature. It's an advanced approach, but certainly it's not impossible.
Please let us know if you have any further questions.
Regards,
JC
