Hello,

on Windows the text selection is possible via the numeric keypad in conjunction with the Shift key. For example Shift-End selects the text from the current cursor position to the end of the line.

But this does not work on Linux (Ubuntu 8x, 10x in my case). The Lazarus editor seems to ignore the key combination.

I tried then to extend the Key Mappings for the "Select line end" command with an alternative key. So I "grabbed" the key combination Shift-End and saved the settings. But the editor behavior did not change.

BTW there is a difference between Windows and Linux, when I use the "Grab key" feature. When I press Shift-End on Linux, the dialog recognizes only the Numpad 1 key. On Windows, the correct key combination (Shift-End) is shown.

Any hints, how I can enable the desired text selection on Linux?

Thanks. Regards, Bernd.
