The Android popup selection dialog covers the editor menu making it impossible to use

You should be able to tap and hold on the "selection dialog" and move it out of the way.
I don't believe this is a bug.

In some android devices it is possible, with some it is not. Confirmed it works on my tablet, but does not work on emulator (struggled with this when doing beta video)

I agree that selection popup is disturbing when trying to access buttons and something needs to be done. I believe @agrogers 's idea is worth trying, though I'm not sure if it will work out well or not (popup is not totally in our hands as it's Android's stuff).

Oh, I never thought of long pressing the popup to drag it away. Just tried it now and i could not move it. I guess the ellipsis button doesn't need to open the android popup - it could just open a custom menu. Although it is nice to keep as much familiar to the user as possible.

If this issue only affects a minority of users then i say leave it for later. Otherwise it feels bad enough to try to address. Unless my note is more than a few lines long then the cool edit tools are useless. (Of course not if i format before I type - there are cumbersome ways around it)

Include this feature in v3.4.

Implementation problem: we can't open selection context menu (copy etc) manually (tried this hard when trying to do #1079). It can come only as a consequence of selection text.

[tuomas2]

The thing is right now that I don't know what to do witht his. I would have fixed this months ago if it was easy to fix neatly.

Option to "hide" or "close" the context menu might work as a workaround/solution.

[agrogers]

It would. Good thinking

This is now fixed by moving toolbar to the bottom
