Description Stephen Leaf 2005-12-17 04:55:51 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)

Sometimes I over/under shoot what I want selected and then go to try and reselect what I wanted.
However if where I need is already selected I first have to deselect it by clicking somewhere else and then select what I want.

Because you can't move your selection by clicking and trying to drag your selection. I'd like to be able to reselect.
Or
Be able to drag a selection and/or resize it.

Reassigning all KOrganizer bug reports and wishes to the newly created 
korganizer-devel mailing list.
Comment 2 Sergio Martins 2009-01-23 04:38:52 UTC 
I also agree, it's a bit counter-intuitive.

Still, there's a comment in the code that suggests that the actual behaviour was done on purpose...

SVN commit 915800 by smartins:

Now, when selecting an area we don't need to click somewhere else first
to clear an existing selection, it gets cleared automatically.
