Key combination for rectangle selection
Hello Rowley Team,
I have noticed a small inconsistency in the rectangle selection. Different key combinations are required when using the keyboard or mouse.
If a rectangle selection is to be made via the mouse, the ALT key must be held down in order to select the area with the mouse.
For a rectangle selection via keyboard, ALT+Shift must be held down while the area can be selected with the arrow keys.
I think it would be easier to have only one variant here, ALT+Shift is probably more common.
An enhancement would be nice, which I find very practical in Visual Studio Code. If you hold down the ALT-Shift key and click with the mouse at a position in the code. A rectangle selection is created between this point and the position of the cursor.
Best Regards

Hello Rowley Team,
by chance I came across another feature of Crossworks. A rectangle selection is also possible if you first set the cursor while holding down the ALT key and then reset the cursor by holding down the Shift key. The two points then result in a rectangular selection. Notepad++ and Visual Studio also support this feature, but Visual Studio Code does not.
I think the method described above, which all three support, should be more commonBest Regards
