Selecting multiple items in "Now Playing" and "Playlist" is very finicky

[whorfin]

True in 0.2.0 and I'm confirming still funky in 0.3.0
Sometimes I can select an item, and hit shift+click to select a range
Sometimes...
Most of the time I can't
If I select an item and shift+click the item immediately above or below, chances are higher that will work
Likewise i can often ctrl+click two items, but almost never more

I wish to do this for eg creating a playlist from a subset of now-playing, or to remove a few albums' worth of tracks from a playlist or now-playing queue

Cheers

Weird. Haven't run into this myself. You're on Mac High Sierra, right? Maybe a GLFW bug with detecting the modifier keys on old MacOSes?

Actually, one thing to double-check - there is a small space in between the rows where the separator is drawn, and if you click there, the click event falls through to the background, which I have hooked up to the UnselectAll action (so that you can clear your selection by clicking outside of the list). Are you definitely clicking on the row itself rather than the separator?

Side note - I should fix it at least so that clicking on the separator does nothing. Ideally a click would just fall onto the nearest row but I'm not sure that's currently possible with how the List widget works

Thanks for the tips and the incredibly fast reply
I was on Windows when I made the report, so I just went and checked:
multi-select works fine on macOS [High Sierra] and Linux
It seems to be just Windows which has this problem
it seems like maybe 1 out of 10 times i can get multi-select to work, but mostly not
