----------------------------------
I think that patch may prevent the scroll timer from being cancelled.
> Selection bug in TextArea
> -------------------------
>
> Key: PIVOT-774
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-774
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Edvin Syse
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: TextAreaSelectionFix.patch
>
>
> If you start to select text in a TextArea and while selecting, move the
> cursor over the bounds of the TextArea (north of it), the selection area is
> not expanded.
> This bug only appears to affect TextArea when the content has been scrolled
> as far down or as far up as possible. While the text is being vertically
> scrolled, selection works as expected.
> A video showing the problem can be seen here:
> https://edvin.viewscreencasts.com/c97422da51ed4cf1845e5a7610a8716f
> This bug makes it hard to select text in a TextArea, because one often moves
> the cursor further north than the TextArea when selecting.
