SUMMARY hiding selection in nightly(8d173ab) causes problems with the selection action bar. it will not popup if the selection is hidden and stick around after a selection has been removed if the selection was hidden first. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. make a selection 2. hide selection 3. clear selection OBSERVED RESULT action bar will hang around or just not show up if the selection is hidden. happens using the shortcut and the action bar itself if selections are hidden. EXPECTED RESULT while you cannon see the selection while hidden some of the actions like filling or clearing are still useful while the actual selection is hidden.

Confirmed. - The Selections Action Bar doesn't appear when making a selection with Select->Display Selection off, until it's re-enabled. (debatable) - If Display Selection is disabled with the bar active, its background and handle disappear but the buttons stay, even after deselecting, until Display Selection is re-enabled. (definitely a bug) Similar issues happen with Select->Show Global Selection Mask.
