Win 7/10. MS 3

  1. Open any score with different kinds of text objects in it.
  2. Go into text edit mode on any text object and select all by pressing [Ctrl] then [A].
    Expected result: The text block is immediately highlighted.
    Actual result: The text is not highlighted until you release the [Ctrl] key.

The standard behaviour in Word processors and on the Internet is that the whole text block should highlight immediately, and before releasing the [Ctrl] key. This was the case in MS2.
