Hi Steve,

It’s more likely a difference in selection than tab vs. G.  Eeschema now 
supports stingy and hungry selections.  If you drag from the left to the right 
then only fully-selected objects will be included (this is the 5.1 behaviour).  
However, if you drag from the right to the left then even partially-selected 
objects will be included.  So if you made the selection in “selecting.png” from 
right-to-left then you also selected the two horizontal wires and the G command 
then dragged them as well.

It should get what you expect if you either drag from left-to-right or drag to 
just include the resistor and part of each vertical wire.

Cheers,
Jeff.
