Not that I know. For me, with up-to-date Buster install, the Rectangle Select is only 'square select' if you click inside the corners of the selection box. In fact, hovering the mouse inside the selection box shows an area to grab, which is either a square (if it's in the corner), or a rectangle along a side where you can drag just that side. The mouse pointer also changes to indicate the selection type. -- Tixy
