Hello Eric Sorry, I don't have time right now to test this, but you might. Does it send the event when selecting via Shitf+Right/Left Arrow?
It *could* be related to the post selection feature, but not sure (in that case I would expect that Shift+Right/Left Arrow also doesn't send the event). Someone would have to debug this and figure out whether it is the intended behavior or simply a bug. Please cc me if you open a bug report.

I am dealing with an issue where StyledText is not sending SWT.Selection events when doing selecting text in a certain way while using the Eclipse Java editor. Specifically, StyledText.sendSelectionEvent() is not being triggered. For example: 1) Open any Java file in the IDE 2) Press Ctrl + Home 3) Press Shift + End This will select an entire line, but StyledText.sendSelectionEvent() is not called. If I hit the down arrow (moving the caret one line down and clearing the selection), I see the method being called. But doing Shift + End on any line is not triggering it at all. Is this expected behaviour? Using pure SWT StyledText snippets shows that Shift + End is indeed triggering the sendSelectionEvent() method, but for some reason the Eclipse Java editor is not doing that.
