Bug Description
Working with text in text boxes, I had the following
two problems:
1) selecting text by dragging the mouse over it
stutters, ie. the highlighting does not follow the
pointer movement. This seems to be especially a problem
with the last letters one wants to select (slower mouse
movement?).
2) Since selection by mouse did not work well for me, I
highlighted the beginning of a desired selection and
then shift+clicked at the end of the desired selection
(eg. paragraph, sentence, part of a sentence). Here
Inkscape looses the initial selection and does not
produce the desired selection range.
I am working with Inkscape 0.44 on Windows 2000.
