Roger Whitcomb commented on PIVOT-891:
--------------------------------------
Actually, there was still a bug in the Shift-Right selection logic after a
click, then double-click the word before it, delete the word, then try
Shift-Right. Will get IllegalArgumentException "selectionLength is negative".

> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: wtk-terra
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2
> Environment: All

> Priority: Minor
> Labels: text-selection
> Fix For: 2.0.3

>
> Currently (in TextArea at least) if you type Shift-Down and select a line or
> two, then do Shift-Up it will extend the beginning of the area, instead of
> reducing the end that you just extended. This is not how any other editor
> works.
> Also would like to have double-click select the "word" the mouse is pointing
> to, as other editors do.
> We'd like TextArea and TextPane (at least, maybe TextInput also) do the same
> things.
