Description
Issue type
UI bug
Bug description
If you select a continuous range of elements, then open the selection dialog (right-click then choose Select > More > "Same subtype"), the "In selection" option remains unchecked (a bug). If you now check this option yourself, which is likely, the selection may fail.
Recommendation
- Make sure that "In selection" is automatically checked when a range has been selected.
- Recheck the example below to make sure it works correctly.
Steps to reproduce
- Open attached file.
selection.zip - Click on the first fingering in measure 1, then Shift click on the last fingering in the same measure. This will highlight 3 different types of fingerings.
- Now right-click on one of the selected RH guitar fingerings and select Select > More, then make sure "Same subtype" and "In selection" are checked. Then OK
ACTUAL RESULT: All of the fingerings in the selection are selected.
EXPECTED RESULT: Only the RH guitar fingerings in the selection should be selected.
The workaround seems to be to leave the "In selection" box unchecked.
