Hi greetings. I’m a truly beginner.
When my script was parsed containing some errors in built-in script editor, it will sustain the ‘selection mode’ continuously. Why it comes to this result and how should I cancel the ‘selection mode’ immediately?
It is really annoying, and challenge the habits of average developers.
I don’t know what is the intention about this design.

what is a ‘selection mode’?

I upload a video to demonstrate that weird action of the editor:
auto enter selection mode
At the 1st error, it isn’t an error actually, nothing special happened.
But after the 2nd error occurs, I just move the cursor by arrow keys, the editor select those content automatically, I don’t hold the shift key at all and that is not my intention.

I cannot reproduce this. Works fine for me.

So… on the video… I expect you are not holding shift, only pressing movement keys.

I can’t reproduce this issue. You may try to use latest RC release, but in case it’s not fixed yet, I am afraid you are about to report a bug.

Yeah, my version is 3.2 stable, and I wonder why so easily reproduced bug hasn’t been reported yet. If I want to send a bug report, should I prepare other things except the video and reproducing descriptions?
