Hi
i've noticed that when creating a selection area using a mrquee tool or
drag tracker, only the editparts that are fully within this area get
selected, and if the selection bounds are crossing the editpart ,the
editpart does not get selected. this behaviour is different then the one
users are familiar (e.g., the windows desktop). my question is how is it
possible to change this behaviour?
thanks
yoav

It is not possible to override this behavior. All GEF applications should
behave the same whenever possible. I think I agree that the marquee tools
should "hit" a figure if it intersects it, not encloses it. If you want to
track this change, open a bugzilla.
Microsoft Visio requires that you enclose the shape with the marquee. Visio
is a better comparison than the windows desktop.
