All my text is selectable in my desktop app. How would I make text non-selectable

I don't remember where I saw it, but there was a thread about that. Something to do with the root making everything selectable by default.

I have the same recollection. I thought it was a tutorial though. I’ll search this thread

This is not the same behavior that I’m seeing though. Text seems selectable by default, and I want it not to be.

See <https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/blob/18afa24fe0b24cc998eade489bda78357d78c866/examples/codeviewer/common/src/commonMain/kotlin/org/jetbrains/codeviewer/ui/editor/EditorView.kt#L105>

Thanks! So I should be able to put `DisableSelection`  over my entire app, and then use `SelectionRegistrar`  (or one of those classes) to enable it on the areas I want to allow?
