Description Laurent Redor CLA 2014-07-02 04:23:44 EDT
Currently, you can select several elements by using a selection rectangle. To be selected, an element must be completely contained by the selection rectangle.

This feature is about adding a add a new mode ("touched" mode), in which to be selected, an element must intersect the selection rectangle.

This new mode will be activated when the user selects elements from right to left. The current mode remains when the user selects elements from left to right.
