--- Comment #1 from Ahab Greybeard <ahab.greybe...@hotmail.co.uk> ---
Testing with the Sept16 4.4.0 alpha (git ec84ff1) appimage
Given that the Ctrl key can be used as a post-modifier to convert the outline
selection tool to a polygonal selection tool, is it required that the polygonal
selecton tool can be similarly converted to an outline selection tool (apart
from the niceness of symmetry)?
The Ctrl key, used as a pre-modifier, will and is supposed to set the
subsequent selection to Replace.
This behaviour seems to be 'leaking' into the use of the outline -> polygonal
conversion when a Crtl post-modifier is used and polygonal selection segments
are created.
Setting to CONFIRMED because of this.
However, The use of the Ctrl key post-modifier in this situation involves
releasing and then re-pressing the LMB so that the Ctrl key effectively becomes
a pre-modifier for parts of the selection.
Similar behaviour is seen when the Ctrl or Shift keys are used as
post-modifiers for the rectangular or elliptical selection tools if you release
and re-press the LMB (even though this in't normally done).
The Ctrl or Shift Keys then produce forced Replace or Add mode.
