    Focal/20.04 is out for quite a while now. You still use Xenial/16.04? I would like to know what stops you from upgrading?

    Just to share my experience, few days ago Waydroid stopped to work for me with my Pixel 3a on 16.04 Stable channel. I was then forced to pass to 20.04, since I still need to have whatsapp in some ways available. I thought that upgrating from within the OS itself straight to 20.04 it would have been a good idea, avoiding using the Ubports installed but it was a great pain instead; it upgraded to 20.04 but OS resulted severely broken. In fact any kind of gesture I was used to was slower and unresponsive most of the time. Phone storage was awfully clogged, 60 GB nearly full for no apparent reason like if the new OS installed along with the old one. Subsequently, I decided to employ the Ubports installer without selecting the wipe option in order to preserve my data but it never ended the process, after many attempts with different usb cables (at least 5 cables I tried). There was no way to resurrect the phone, therefore in the end I was obliged to try to install by means of the Ubports installer but this time tapping on the wipe tick, to install from scratch. It worked flawless and now I'm on Focal 20.04. Unfortunately I lost some of my data, but luckily I was wise enough to backup at least my personal videos and pictures. The new environment seems much snappier than before, but I'll report my experience on that in a few days to get used to it.

    @domubpkm I am sorry, I forgot to reply. Sadly so far I haven't found a working solution. When setting the TextArea to read-only, we can't navigate in it. So no option. I didn't found time yet to see if some manually added controls allow moving the text in read-only mode. I also tried (after your question, could you please open an issue/feature request so I don't forget about that?) to display the file in a webview. I used that successfully when testing something for weather app and webviews allow pinching and dragging and that. But for some reason simply instantiating a webview component in the code, not even displaying a file, always crashes tedit (of course no error message that might give a direction where to look at). I am totally lost here why that happens. Many apps use webviews for various purposes.
