I seem to lose 2 things when upgrading to this version from v7.0.3.
The first is the Window List plugin that allows each window type to have its own colour.

Additionally the box editting function no longer works. This is where you press ALT + left click to highlight a block of text to cut or copy and is very useful for general work.

This Plug-In is no longer supported by the author, and is not compatible with 7.1.

This still works for me with Alt + Mouse selection.
 
Thank you Marco.

I have retried the Alt + Mouse and it no longer works. It just highlights everything as normal.
To be sure I have restore my key configuration to system default with no luck.
 
Marco,

I have found that there is a subtle change in functionality between versions but the feature still works as you have stated.

In the old version I can
-click on ALT and then use left mouse button (LMB)and drag to perform a box select.
-click LMB and then click ALT and use mouse drag to perform a box select.

In 7.1.4
I have to click on ALT first in order to do a box select. Using LMB first and then ALT does a normal text selct.

My initial tests saw this feature as lost since I had trained myself to use LMB first.
