Definitely seeing this too occasionally. Are you, by any chance, using WordHighlight plugin? I’m not 100% sure yet, but it seems that selection glitching at least happens more often with it installed, both under Linux and Windows XP. The worst part is that I can’t reproduce it properly, though.
What I can definitely say, is that when it happens, selecting text with mouse starts selection one line below of where it should actually be, and if done towards the end of the file, selection ends at the last symbol regardless of where the mouse is.
I think the problem is with “scroll_past_end” option, I just had the same issue after I set it to false in my user file settings…
EDIT: I tried to reproduce it and apparently it happens when you have scroll_past_end option set to false, then you fold something in the last lines of your code and try to select anything near those lines.
EDIT 2: The problem is with pyparadigm’s tagmatcher plugin[/quote]
This might be because SublimeTagmatcher searches on every change of the selection. If it has to search real far, it can cause some stuttering on selection especially with the rapid changing of selection due to the drag select etc.
I had created a fork to fix things like this myself, but also added a lot of other things. You can check out my BracketHighlighter plugin which merged SublimeBracket and SublimeTagmatcher. I debounced the highlighting to cut down on how many times the highlighting was occuring. I also placed limits to keep it from bogging down things. It is all configurable as well in case you don’t like the response of things and has additional features. If you end up trying the plugin but still see issues, you can create an issue on the git site and I can look into the issue, otherwise, I would create an issue on pyparadigm’s plugin site and try to work with him to get it fixed.
