Noel Grandin commented on PIVOT-685:
------------------------------------
Greg, you are right.
I'm not having much success tracking this one down, getting lost in the maze of
when an index value points to the boundary between 2 characters, and when it
points to the character itself.
Makes me want to write some classes which wrap an int and explicitly specify
which kind of index they are :-)
Maybe next week my brain will be in better shape.

> Fix For: 2.0.1

>
> SHIFT+UP & SHIFT+DOWN keystrokes can be used to expand the selection to the
> previous or next line respectively.
> However SHIFT+DOWN fails to extend the selection past an empty line.
> SHIFT+UP appears to work as expected
> Given the following text, and the caret positioned at the start of the
> TextArea, the first press of SHIFT+DOWN will select 'abc', the second will
> also select 'def', but third and subsequent presses will have no effect due
> to an empty 3rd line.
> 'abc <newline>
> def <newline>
> <empty line>
> ghi'
> Workaround by using the mouse, or SHIFT+LEFT & SHIFT+RIGHT
