Description nigel_bris 2009-02-23 22:50:23 UTC

If you select a block of text and then hit delete, the block is deleted, if you press undo (cmd-z), the block returns but it no longer highlighted. Other editors 
would keep the original highlighting..

Could you please give a specific example where this happens to you? Seems to work for me, or I am not understanding the 
problem correctly.

Comment 2 nigel_bris 2009-02-27 09:25:33 UTC

select (highlight) a couple of words in a line of code, if you hit delete the selected items disappear... If you hit Ctrl Z to reverse your delete they return ok.. But 
the selection (highlight) is no longer on the original words you selected so you must select the block again as you may of meant to do something else...   Does 
that make more sense ?

Sorry for the delay - I see what you meant now. This is a general editor issue, so reassigning for evaluation.
