| Summary | 0005006: Pressing shift-LMB select, is selecting multiple back ground items. | ||||
| Description | When 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 Reproduce | I 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. | |
| Ok will do, when I get home this evening. | |
|
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. https://youtu.be/q2jhJOpFKy0 |

Added a note to my other bug report, which may provide insights on whats effecting both bugs - - http://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=5016 |
|
| Is there anything else I can do to help narrow down the issue..? | |
|
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. |
|
| The common thread is I have been using Logitech K120 keyboards for over 10 years, and these are cheap membrane based keyboards. So it entirely possible that because I am using my r/h little finger, I am momentarily lifting that finger ever so slightly. As I have gotten used to and am seemingly the only person with the issue, this can be closed. | |
