Hi,
is there any special reason that after using 'Identify' tool on polygon
feature, it is highlighted by its outer shape (whole polygon extent
area) rather than by exact geometry like it is done by 'Select' tool ?

Example:
1. Draw multi-polygon feature containing few holes.
2. Click on polygon using 'Identify' tool. Whole polygon including holes
is highlighted.
3. Click on polygon using 'Select' tool. Exact polygon shape is
highlighted (without holes)

I think, current behavior is quite confusing, when You have big
polygons, containing holes where another polygons exists.

I seams, there is related ticket on this [1].

Thanks
It might have something to do with the fact that you can Identify
multiple layers at the same time, so in that sense the Identify would
include anything in the hole underneath your layer too. Looks like the
ticket you found in trac is the same thing. I suggest you add your
description to provide more details to it.

Thanks, it makes some sense, but it is not very user friendly behavior. I have added my notes to that ticket.
