Hello,
I just updated my Lazarus - after quite some time (I was at 52983)
to the latest SVN version (54501).
It seems the editor behaviour regarding selection has changed. In a
*major* annoying way, I might add.
Before the update, if I stood at the start of a line, and did shift-down,
the first line would be selected, including newline. Which is exactly
what I wanted and what I always used: shift-down to select a line,
copy to clipboard and then paste somewhere.
After the update, when I do this, the first line is selected, and the
second
line (where the cursor is after shift-down) as well. With as a result
that I can no longer select a single line with newline!!
Is this intentional and if so, can this new behaviour be reverted - or
at least
made optional ? it is *extremely* annoying, I have no words for it
(and if I had they would be really, really expletive).
It's IMHO also bad policy to change the behaviour of an editor in such a
major way without at least notifying people (as far as I can see,
there is
nothing in the WIKI about this)
Michael.
I had this too, and it took me quite a while to find out: this is the
line selection mode which I must have activated accidentally. Working in
classic keyboard scheme this happens with CTRL-KL. Since I never knew
the key short cut to turn it off again I removed this key mapping, and
since then, I have not seen it again.
