(Video example)

Most of the times, left-click on canvas doesn't deselect the "Outline Selection Tool". Steps to reproduce (video):

1) draw a selection with the "Outline Selection Tool"
2) do left-click outside it in order to deselect.

Expected Results: deselect the selection.
Actual Results: a new selection is created, usually too small to be seen (i.e. no marching ants).

Can you also make a tablet log? I cannot reproduce this on OpenSUSE Leap 42.2 with kwin... I wonder if it's another Unity 14.04 issue.

Hi Boudewijn, thanks for checking. Here is a tablet log I made doing "CTRL+SHIFT+T". Can be it meaningful for you? Thanks

Hm, looks like the button presses are coming through, so it's not like unity is blocking them.

Yes, I think so.
I've double checked and it seems it happens mainly at the lower zoom levels (new video attached).
If that was the case, maybe could it help to raise / tune the threshold (if any exists), after which starting a new selection, when at lower zoom levels? Thanks

It seems I'm not able to reproduce the issue anymore with Krita 4.2.0-pre-alpha. I'm going to close this report.
