Multiple Item Selection "Shift" Key

[Ryan Means]

I was experimenting with the listbox control and noticed that it does not support the shift key for multiple selection.  I think this is going to be a feature the users of our website are going to ask for.  They are used to selecting one item then clicking an item two or three items further down in the list while holding the shift key down and having all of the items between the first and last item selected.

Also, is there a way to prevent the text from being selected while clicking and dragging over the top of the list items?  Highlighting the row is fine, but having the text within the highlighted row also be selectable makes using the control a little confusing.

Hi Ryan Means,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the new RadListBox control.

The first suggestion is in our TO-DO list and will be surely included in one of the future versions of the control.

As for the issue, in which browser did you observe text selection while dragging?

Best wishes,
Simon

I am using IE7, and I also tried it in Firefox v3.5 and I get the same behavior.  I will send a screen shot to your support email and reference this post.

Hello Ryan Means,

Indeed text is selected, although not each time, in IE and rarely in FireFox.

I logged this issue in our bug-tracking system and updated your Telerik points for the report.

Sincerely yours,
