title: Android: "TextView does not support text selection. Action mode cancelled"
body: <p>"TextView does not support text selection. Action mode cancelled."</p>
  
  <p>I get this error when I try to bring up the context menu in an EditText in a PopupWindow in Android. The selection markers also do not work.</p>
  
  <p>The question has been asked a number of times but has stayed unanswered:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8035159/how-to-enable-selection-markers-for-edittext-in-popupwindow">How to enable selection markers for EditText in PopupWindow?</a></p>

  <p>I am just another person dealing with the same issue. Any ideas?</p>
