It is enabled when you have a read-only document. So write some text, save it and click on the "edit file" button to switch to read-only. In read-only you don't normally have a visible cursor but if you toggle that function then you get a visible text cursor which you can use to easier select text with the keyboard for example. I'm not so sure that it is a very useful feature to have in the menus, but it is at least working the way it is intended to work.
Great!It works in the read-only mode.And when I click the Select Text,the cursor appeared in the document! Thanks a lot! :)
