Hi!
I disabled "VA context menu upon shift+right-click", but enabled "VA context menu upon right-click in margin of text editor". After I opened the VA context menu and close it again by a click outside the menu very often I cannot mark text with the mouse. Only after I right-clicked in the text editor can I mark text with the mouse again.
Best regards,
hensz |

Which IDE and version of VA are you using?
How often do you see this problem?
I have just tried this 10 times in a row using VS2005 and VA 1557 and I am not seeing any problems at all. I have set these two options the same way you describe, and I opened VA's context menu by right clicking (no shift key) in the margin of the editor, and closed it by left clicking in the code, away from the open menu. |

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 SP1 and VisualAssist 1557.
The problem appears nearly every time I open the VA context menu and close it by a left (or right) click in the text.
I noticed that it doesn't appear if I close the menu not by a click but by clicking and holding the left mouse button and dragging the mouse, as though I would mark text. No text is marked then, but when I release the mouse button marking text works fine.
I'm using one option that might not be common: I have disabled the 'Indicator Margin' in the Text Editor Options of Visual Studio. Perhaps this has some influence on the issue.
Best regards,

*ah* that was it. As soon as I turned off the Indicator Margin I can reproduce this problem every other time I trigger the VA shift + right click menu. Turning the Indicator Margin back on for how should fix the problem for you:

The current build 1559 introduces a new context menu bug:
If I select a range of lines, e.g. to be commented out, and use shift-right-click, the selected area is deselected before the menu appears, making it impossible to use it to comment out blocks...
As far as I can rememember this feature worked with 1557 - but I'm not 100% sure

fyi: This bug does not occur (at least on my machine) when I open the context menu by right-clicking on the margin instead of shift+right-clicking. I can reproduce your problem here.

Thank a lot, "hensz",
that works for me, too. At least a workaround :-)
All the Best,
Henrik

I am seeing the same effect here. Thank you for the clear description. Apologies for breaking this:
