DocumentViewer: highlight considers the whole line highlighted when it's not

[Rose Collins]

When you highlight lines for instance 2 lines and 3 or 4 words of the 3rd line .. Then you pass some words and want to start highlighting in the same line, the cusor will be clickable and showing you the small stickey notes window as if it's highlighted .. you also can't highlight this place unless you highlight from the next line backwards to the same words you wanted.
