Instantaneous jump while selecting text with mouse...

Post by jonljacobi »

I'm not sure what it is that I do, but every once in a while when I'm trying to select some text on one line, all of a sudden I'm about 10,000 lines higher and all the text in between is selected. Maybe a "feature" I'm not aware of? It always occurs when I'm selecting from the very top line. (Yes, I've started scrolling the text down to avoid this...)

No biggie, but I thought I'd mention it.

Cheers, Jon

On a similar note, when I double-click a Procedure name in the editor to jump
to the procedure, I get a big selection of text from the click point to the new
destination in code... so it seems the editor needs to clear the event buffer or
something so the editor doesn't think the user made a text selection. Freak?
I compile using 5.31 (x86) on Win 7 Ultimate (64-bit).

Couldn't tell you what's causing it, but your explanation seems as good as anything I can come up with. It seems to occur after a couple of aborted attempts to highlight the text, or perhaps I'm double-clicking and not noticing it....
