Ctrl-click and drag text no longer works

by James Terry · in Torsion · 03/30/2007 (8:50 am) · 5 replies

I am using the new beta, 1.1.53 and one of the older features, being able to select a section of text and Ctrl-dragging it would copy it to wherever I dropped the mouse cursor at.

Now Ctrl-clicking, no matter if a section of text is selected or not will clear whatever was selected and select the word you clicked on.

Maybe this Ctrl-clicking a word could be an option to turn on or off, or not function when you already have text highlighted.

Thanks

It works for me by dragging the word *then* hitting ctrl before dropping it.

Did it work differently before?

Yeah, that way still works, you just can't hit Ctrl before clicking anymore (which is what I'm used to)

I would think Ctrl+Clicking a word to select it wouldn't function if you already had a section highlighted, I think that is how it functions in Visual Studio
