Description Thomas Singer CLA 2014-07-25 11:13:34 EDT 
When launching the Snippet15 on Windows, one can easily select/unselect ranges using Ctrl+Shift+<left mouse click>, but on Linux this does not work - instead it works as Shift was not pressed.

Still reproducible on GTK3 and GTK2.
Comment 2 Eric Williams CLA 2018-05-04 14:28:41 EDT 
IMO we should fix this in 4.9.
Comment 3 Eric Williams CLA 2018-05-25 14:53:05 EDT 
I believe the issue here is that Snippet15 uses SWT.BORDER and thus multi line selection is disabled. Using SWT.MULTI seems to work fine on GTK3.

Is it possible that this is a bug on Windows, or maybe just platform differences?

Thomas, can we close this one?
