[jira] [Created] (PIVOT-728) TextPane: shift-cursor selection behaviour doesn't match other editors when moving backwards and forwards

TextPane: shift-cursor selection behaviour doesn't match other editors when moving backwards and forwards
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PIVOT-728
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-728
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: wtk
    Affects Versions: 2.0
            Reporter: Noel Grandin
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.1


1. Click somewhere in a paragraph.
2. Hold down the shift key.
3. Press right-arrow twice.
Two characters are now selected.
4. Press left-arrow once.
Now 3 characters are selected.

The expected behaviour after step 4 is that only character is selected.

The tricky part about this is that it requires us to keep track of where the selection process __began__, because we need to know if the user is moving forwards or backwards from the original selection position.
