I hate to be rude; your questions are welcome, but this is an FAQ: http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FAQ#How_can_I_select_text_in_columns.3F If you have any suggestions as to how to make this more obvious please let us know; although bear in mind that the key/action is a PDFKit, not Skim, decision.
