This is somewhat annoying because when you type, you insert at the end of the text, but the highlighted region still disappears. It looks like the highlight region and the text region are ignoring the initial mouse click (as the highlight always starts from the left and the text insert's always on the furthest right), and the cursor ignores subsequent dragging. Perhaps it should follow the mouse location more closely so that if you can highlight an arbitrary section rather than a section from the beginning of the text. To reproduce this: - Get to a file open dialog box somehow (like File|Open Project) - Type in something in the filename field - click on a folder - try to select a sub region (before the last char) of what you typed - type something else, which you'd expect to replace the highlighted text -Albert
