For example, in the editor I would like to delete a large section of a file (i.e. more than what is visible in the window). I would like to begin the selection using button 1, use the scrollbar to move down the file, use buton 2 to extend the selection, and then delete the selected text. It is very frustrating to make multiple deletes. Dennis
