Using Scintilla v3.7.3, building with VisualStudio2008. (<sigh>...!) Company has plans to upgrade to VS2015 later this year.
Rectangular selection is working great. Hold down ALT, click with mouse and select rectangular area.
But as soon as the ALT key is released, focus moves to "File" in the menubar and the blinking multi-line cursor in Scintilla at the edge of the rectangular selection disappears.
When I press and release ALT again, then the menubar loses focus and the blinking cursor is back in the editor.
The SciTE demo doesn't have this behaviour. The editor somehow still maintains focus after the ALT key is released. Is there some special handling for ALT in SciTE that I should be looking at? Browsing through the SciTE source code, nothing obvious stood out.
Thanks for any hints,
