It would be fine to have following extensions for selection along with refactoring tools in Visual Assist X:

select line:


select inner text:


select scope:


select outer text:


select statement:


select inner block:


select block scope:


select outer block:


select method body lines:


select method lines:


select class:

We are considering doing something like this at some point:

The editor I'm working on for Visual FreePro supports this. You can select out to the parent blocks, and also unselect back into the child blocks.

I like it. Even if it doesn't make it into VA X, this would be a useful extension by itself. I could see it working both before and after clicking on stuff: you could have selection filters that are set prior to clicking on things, or add something to the context menu to expand the selection to one of these scopes.

While you're at it, might as well add namespace, containing namespace, containing class, lambda body, c-style comment block, and "chunk of text up to all whitespace or blank lines".
