Quote only part of a post

GM228

Can't seem to figure out how to part quote a post (assuming this is still possible - was helpful when dealing with multiple points in a quoted post), previously we could break up and multi quote a single post, but now it seems only an entire post can be quoted and can't find any way of breaking down a quote - using mobile if that makes a difference.

It's not possible I'm afraid, a workaround is to copy the part of the post that you want to reply to and use the quotation finction to mark it as a quote and tag in the user, for example:

Thanks for that, and just noticed this raises another issue on mobile, doing a longish quote that way is fine, however with a short quote when I highlight it the bold, italic etc option pops up, then when I press the symbol to get to the quote option the bold, italic option overlaps it making it impossible to hit the quote symbol depending on where the text is on the post.
