GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 85739
shift-up/down keyboard selection broken in article pane
Last modified: 2006-06-18 05:15:51 UTC
selection of articles using keyboard shift-up/down combination doesn't work as expected if up/down arrow is pressed and released and then pressed again while holding shift down. it seems to only keep the current article and 1 or 2 previous articles selected as opposed to retaining the entire previous selection. however, if up/down arrow is held down instead of pressing and releasing it, selection works as expected. if shift is held down during pressing and releasing up/down arrow, one would expect that previously selected items would remain selected as is the case in the group pane. also, this scenario doesn't work as expected: 1) select an article 2) hold shift down 3) press down (correctly selects fist and second articles) 4) press up One would expect that this would cause the first article to remain selected and the second deselected, but both remain selected.
Confirmed. Still seeing both with gtk2 2.0.5.
