GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 126076
Shift key with arrow key file selection
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Clicking a file A, holding down shift key, and then clicking on another file B with the mouse button will properly select a group of files from A though B. The shift key modifer fails though when using the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard to select files. If I select file A, and then while holding down the shift key use the down arrow to get to file B, the file grouping does not work as expected and actually no file group selection happens.
