The bug is old and Ubuntu changed quite a lot since, there has also been
no activity here nor similar reports. Closing since we believe the issue
as described is deprecated but feel free to file a new report if you
still have problems in recent Ubuntu versions.

Title:
multiple selection boxes in nautilus desktop/icon view
Status in Nautilus:
New
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
When "click and drag" selecting on the desktop, it is possible to leave the
previous selection rectangle on the desktop by clicking again. For example,
using a mouse, I click and drag, creating a box. Without letting go, I use the
mouse-click button on my laptop to click again. This causes another box to
appear, leaving the old one behind. This can be done multiple times. The only
way to clear it is to restart nautilus.
I am running a fully updated Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex on my Dell laptop.
