Feature? "Ctrl"-key jumps to cursor location in SQL result window

[Claus Pedersen]

I am viewing a wide SQL window result set (more columns than can be displayed without horisontal scroll bar). The cursor is in column 1. I now scroll to the last column so column 1 is no longer visible. I now want to use key to mark several columns to be copied.

The 'feature' is that the first time I press the key down, the cursor jumps to column 1, I do not even have to release the key. This may be intentional, but for the end user it is confusing. If I mark one column and then press to mark other columns, it works OK. It is only when no columns are marked and the cursor is scrolled outside the current view that this happens.

It also happens when the vertical scrollbar scrolls the current cursor out of focus, this is also annoying when you want to copy several rows using and then marking the rows, the current row focused by scroll is lost.

I believe this was also a problem in 7.0

This is indeed the same in 7.0 and 7.1. The result grid scrolls th current cell (where the cursor is) into view when pressing Ctrl. We'll see if this can be prevented.

That would be nice
