VS Code Scrolling

Can someone tell me, please, how to make VS Code scroll when selecting sections of code? I can start a selection but can go no further than the bottom of the code window. I might have stepped on a setting because I believe I’ve selected by scrolling past the end of page displayed in the past.

I’m trying to select several pages of CSS code to use in another project. I cannot start a selection and scroll down to the end of the code I want. The scroll stops at the bottom of the window.

By accident, I found that if I selected as much as I could and held down the mouse button, I could use the mouse scroll wheel with my index finger causing the page to scroll and content to be selected but only if I kept the mouse button pressed.

Drag the cursor past the end of the screen.

For reasons I cannot explain, that stopped working for me.

Also you can try
CTRL + A to select all
and
Shift + DownArroy to select down,
it might be suitable for your needs.
