Just been doing some building with the new update and if I left click in one of the boxes on the edit window (such as Size x) and drag, to highlight several characters at once, this no longer highlights correctly. It's only highlighting the last character you dragged over. I've copied and pasted and can confirm that it's only copying a single character as well (so it doesn't appear to be just a display glitch).

It wasn't like this before 1.6.8. Anybody else finding this?

Scratch that, I had Insert on for some reason. Turning insert off solved it.

Yup, if you hit Insert while typing in a text entry field, it'll screw up text selection for all fields, even read-only ones. You can only reset it back to the normal setting in a normal text entry field.

Yes, I'd never noticed that before (Insert isn't something I tend to consciously use, so I must of hit the key by mistake today lol)
