[squeak-dev] Bad backwards scrolling selection extension bug

Hi Marcel, Hi All,

    I notice that backwards scrolling selection extension no longer works
properly, at least in the Transcript.

To reproduce, ensure your Transcript is full of many lines of text.  Scroll
to the bottom.  Click and hold the left button at the end of the
selection.  While holding the button down move the mouse to the top of the
Transcript window (or a little beyond) to start scrolling backwards while
extending the text selection.  It used to be that the text selection would
continue to extend from the current cursor/mouse point to the end of the
selection.  This no longer happens.  This is a rather serious text
selection regression.  IMO it needs to be fixed before the next release.

_,,,^..^,,,_
best, Eliot
