Shift key selection broken

Post by SuperV1234 »

Using latest revision. When I try to select text in the editor by holding the Shift key and clicking the Left mouse button, nothing gets selected.
Is there any option that I could try changing, or is it a bug?

Shift selection works fine when using arrow keys.

Intended change. I did not realize people are actually using this way to select code...
I will make it configurable

Committed to trunk.
Settings -> global editor preferences -> C++ -> code
