Build Identifier: I20110526-1708 On lengthy context sensitive help panels the highlight for text selection doesn't always select the text under the cursor. Instead either no highlight will appear, or the highlight will appear further down the help than the area which should have been selected. This behavior appears to be tied to the scroll bar. If the help has not been scrolled, then the selection works as expected, but if the help is scrolled down half a page, then the selection highlight appears half a page below the mouse cursor. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load an F1 help with several screens of text 2. Scroll down the help half a screen 3. Select some text at the top of the screen -- the highlight will appear halfway down the screen.
Can you attach a screenshot
This may be the same problem as was reported in Bug 323937.
