Title: Lil Bug: Selecting non-adjacent files
Post by: Slope on April 30, 2008, 10:23:00 am
Hey pals,

When I select some files and hold down the shift key and add another selection by dragging a box (right mouse button) around several files, the previously selected files are no more part of the selection.

This has not yet been fixed in build 487.



@ MC crew

By the way, all you hear me do is moan. But don't get me wrong, I love your software and there are countless things I could never do without it. Big respect for what you are doing!

Shift + left button lasso can add to a selection. Odd that it does not work with the right-button.

(You can enable left button lasso in Options > Tree & View > Advanced)

Weird!
I've just checked it out and I got kind of random results.
The first file selected stays now, but it still doesn't work properly on my machine.

Coming in build 490 and later:
Fixed: Holding shift while drawing a right-click lasso in a list wouldn't do additive selection.

Thanks for the heads up.
