jdk 1.5 linux daily 26 june 2005 if text is selected in the editor, clicking on text outside of the selected area properly unselects the text, but a single click inside the selected text does not unselect the text, which it should. this probably has to do with the newly-added drag and drop support.
Very anoying behavior BTW. Even clicking once outside of selected text doesn't remove the selection.
we will fix it to NB 4.2

while the text is now unselected when you click inside the text, the cursor position is still incorrect. it should be moved to the clicked position.
thanks for finding that. fixed in [maintrunk] /cvs/editor/libsrc/org/netbeans/editor/BaseCaret.java,v <-- BaseCaret.java new revision: 1.116; previous revision: 1.115
