Summary0005006: Presseing shift-LMB select - is selecting mutltiple back ground items
DescriptionWhen I am shift-selecting surfaces, worldspawn or objects in orthoview DR will semi-regularly select a bunch of items in the background all the way to the edge of the map.

The amount of times I have come back to work in DR and found whole swathes of brushes with the same textures, or lights with the same shader.


Steps To ReproduceI have tried 3 different mice and 2 different keyboards (shift key) and the issue is worse when using a steel series mouse (£40) than compared to a cheap logitec M100 mouse (£10).

It looks like DR or myself are somehow drag selecting, but I am not seeing a selection reticule. I don't believe this issue effected the older pre-widgets versions of DR?

Would it help if I made a video of this behavior..?

If you don't mind, a video might be helpful. I've never seen such behaviour.

While making the small example video, I noticed another issue (which I have filed another tracker for)

At the start of the video I am holding the shift key and then left clicking on various brushes in camera view, and you can see each of the two times I was able to reproduce it - you can see a load of background items get selected.

So fast forward to DR 3.3, several different makes/models of mice but same model of keyboard and this issue is still present.

At this point Ive just gotten used to it, but it still catches me out once in a while when I find textures on surfaces that shouldn't be etc.
