Very curious???
A question, can you select multiple parts in the text editor using the shift
key? This routine is handled by the NSDrawer manager not MBC, so it may at least
see if it's my keyboard mapping.
Additionally, do these other keys work?
1. Select a part, press the option key and click and the move the mouse
horizontally this should rotate the single selected part (undocumented - still
underconstruction feature)
2. Enable mouse editing in the preferences panel, then if you place the mouse
over a part, click and move it, the mouse will move the part. However if you
repeat the above, while holding the apple key, the model should rotate.
