[Solved] Alt+Arrow left/right should column select

[Stefan]

Alt+Arrow left/right should column select  IMHO

Right now Alt+Arrow left/right is associated with command Next/prev tab.

Holding Alt-Key while making an selection switch to column selection mode... That's good.

I think and want suggest to make Alt+Arrow left/right switch to column selection mode too.
1.) press and hold the Alt-key
2.) press the arrow left (or right) -key ...and HE switch to column sel mode
3.) press the left/right arrow a few times
4.) now press arrow up/down to make your selection complete
I think this is an kind of standard.

What do you thing?

I think the standard is the same but keeping Shift in addition Already  checked
But if you like it without shift also, you can modify your keyboard schema.
Commands for column selection can be filtered by ExtColumn.

Thanks, i see now:

keyboard shortcut to start an column selection is Shift+Alt+Arrow left/right
and could be set to user favor with "Tools > Options... > Keyboard > Edit.ExtColumnCharLeft/Right"
