Shift-down/up on container select one of child nodes and labels/features. see sample in attachment. shift-down elect invocation and stops. shift-up select all icinic nodes, all labels and stops on invocation. reproducible for all containers. it's should be a separate issue but I can't select partition columns/rows also.
Created attachment 70212 [details] sample diagram
side effect, even if nothing is selected on a diahgram, scene is a container and shift-down will select on of nodes or/and labels/features.
http://hg.netbeans.org/uml-main/rev/1e47e1e3d197 The real issue here is Shift-up/down on a container widget is selecting the first/last widget in the container. That is fixed. Sub-Partitions were designed NOT to be selectable. So we don't allow selecting sub-partitions or its name widgets. However, if you want to change the name of the sub-partition, you can get the context-menu, select-in-model, go to the partition and rename it. This satisfies A11Y part of the issue. The shift-up/down on the scene is selecting the last created node on the diagram. If this is the issue, please feel free to file a P5.
