When using the 'edit' feature on selection of a portion of text it would be great that the prompt assumes the edit relates to the selected text without having to specify this explicitly in the prompt.

Hey Jason, thanks for flagging this. The edit feature should just edit the section you select, but we give the AI more context around it so it can make an appropriate edit.
Are you seeing it make edits wider than that? If so, how often? We can look at tweaking the prompt, what we've shipped so far is just a starting point, will naturally be some follow on work.

Fred Rivett I am also experiencing this. Although the behavior is a bit erratic. Sometimes it will only edit a portion of the selection, particularly when more than one paragraph is selected. There are also a couple of other issues.
  • The "Accept changes" button also does not work consistently. More than often it simply does apply the changes. It thinks about it for a bit and then
  • Highlighting deleted, new, and unchanged text is hit-and-miss. In the attachment, you can see examples of high leading unchanged text as red and text that has changed with no highlights.
