Its not an issue, and now that I know how it works, I think it's great. I had not used select allot to date. I was just playing with the podcast order thing. I generally play albums, internet stations, podcasts, one at a time. I was just reporting something in noticed in case it's undesirable behavior (the b word). I ran across it because I initiated a select (item1), then trying to select mistakenly did a control select (item 10), then realized a wanted a range, unselected (10), then shift select (10) and it didn't select all (1-10), so I thought "didn't work". I now know that the range select that didn't "work" (per your message and my test) is from the previous (10) to the next (10), and that's what I saw. I now realize your technique is very flexible and actually ideal. If I do the above again, I can simply do a shift select of (2) after, and the range is selected. your technique makes it easy for me to say select 1-10,17,30-50,16,20, etc. Thanks for making me think about it, I learned something today!
