Microsoft Copilot (Microsoft 365): Ask Copilot about highlighted response content
Users can now highlight specific text (sentences, paragraphs, or tables) in Copilot responses and ask follow-up questions about only that selected content. This enables more targeted queries and reduces irrelevant broad answers.

Microsoft's description
Highlight a sentence, paragraph, or table from the response and ask Copilot to work only on that selection. Get focused explanations, concise summaries, quick translations, or next steps for the exact passage you’re reviewing—no more over broad answers. Your selection is previewed in the prompt so you can edit before you send. It’s a faster, more controlled way to get help right where you’re working.
