Description Ernest Pasour

I have created a folding editor, and for each of the folding regions (ProjectionAnnotations), I have called "setRangeIndication(true);".  When the editor is painted, the range indicator is drawn.  However, moving the mouse across the line causes it to disappear as soon as the mouse leaves the ruler area.  It appears that in ProjectionRulerColumn, the mouse move event sets the range indication to true/false based on the mouse move and redraws.  

It would be nice if the setRangeIndication() method actually acted like a mode and was independent of the mouse move.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. If the request is still relevant please remove the stalebug whiteboard tag.

IMO a valid request. Might be combined with a preference to always show range indicators (was my first thought after reading the summary).
