Mouse click outside of selection tries to drag the text

#1

After a select-all operation (CTRL-A), it is not possible to click on areas without text to clear the selection and set the caret’s location anymore. It simply tries to drag the selection even though I clicked outside of the selected text.

Is there a setting to revert to the standard behavior of other text editors where this will simply clear the selection and place the caret as close to the click location as possible?

I’m using SublimeText v3 Build 3047, but I noticed this in SublimeText 2 as well.
