[STR New] Link: http://www.fltk.org/str.php?L2485 Version: 1.3-current First a general question: should the middle mouse button generate double and triple clicks and thus be able to *select* text? Now my observation on Linux: start test/editor and enter something like this single line and press enter: This is a line of text Now select the last word (text) together with the following line break. Then click on the next line with the middle mouse button. Result: This is a line of text text So far, so good. Now click again at the end of the buffer (slowly!), so that the new text is inserted. All is well. But then click three times (so fast that the system registers a triple click). Okay, that may be strange, but it can happen. The strange behavior is that the full original line of text of the previous selection is now selected, and the next click inserts the full line instead of only the original selection. The bad result in the text buffer is something like this: This is a line of text text text text text text text This is a line of text This is a line of text This is a line of text Although this is maybe not a normal user behavior (but I used it to copy some smaller parts of the text multiple times), there is clearly a bug that the previous selection is extended to the full line. This is absolutely unrelated to the actual mouse position (and can also be off the screen, so that the user can't see it). --- So far that's the linux problem. I tried to replicate it on Windows, but I can't manage to do a triple click in FLTK apps on Windows. It works well in other apps though, so that it is clearly not a setup issue. In fact, my Linux tests are in a VM on the same Windows XP system. Tests done with svn r8027 on Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows XP/MinGW.
