--- Comment #7 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to jan d from comment #6) > The behavior the the selection rectangle makes sense to me, it behaves as I > expected it: It is a rectangle enclosing all objects selected But it is not a rectangle. It only looks like one on the screen, if you don't pay attention. It's not even contiguous. And, most importantly - it is essentially never a selection that is useful to the user. >, and its shape > is based on the current view as I see it (so it changes with different page > layouts). It also changes if you change the window size. > As Heiko pointed out, not seeing the whole rectangle at any point > implies that there are more shapes selected that are currently not fully in > view. If I am in a larger zoom level, and I select one (of many) shape and drag diagonally, I will soon be in a state in which there are more shapes selected than are currently fully in view. That can happen irrespective of this multi-page selection behavior; you can get it even on a single-page document. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
