Thanks for that -- I think that adds weight to the suggestion that Alt+Shift+click should always extend the selection as a block (rather than just extend any current selection).

A small update on this: it appears that it is connected to the mouse clicking to select the start point -- when I get stuck like this I can reliably use the keyboard to just move left then right to the same selection point and then Alt+Shift+mouse click will select as a block. Maybe what's happening ...

Block Select Keystroke Intermittent

Did your Workspace contain split windows? If so then it might be the same problem that I posted about here . There is one byte that seems to cause the problem when it gets too big (maybe the field is being handled as signed or something?). I can supply trivial examples if necessary, but I'm sure the ...

BUG: (low) split window makes Workspace unloadable

I've finally tracked down a bug that was in TextPad v4 and still there when I upgraded it to v5.0.3. If you split a window with a low horizontal split (towards the bottom of the window) then the resulting workspace cannot be loaded. I traced this by making the split in the middle of the window and ...
