<p>Just to be absolutely clear what we're talking about, here's a gif recording of an unconfigured SciTE 4.0.2:</p>
<p><a href="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2133026/32747877-772038a2-c877-11e7-97cd-4a47153ef1b3.gif" target="_blank"><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2133026/32747877-772038a2-c877-11e7-97cd-4a47153ef1b3.gif" alt="scite_multiple_selections" style="max-width:100%;"></a></p>
<p>In the gif I <code>Ctrl-click</code> twice (unfortunately you can't see my mouse,) to make two additional selections, perform some edits, then simply left click to go back to a single selection.</p>
<p>I guess I was assuming Scintila handled more of the GUI, rather than, as appears to be the case, just managing the editor state.</p>
<p><a href="https://github.com/adamdanischewski" class="user-mention">@AdamDanischewski</a> Those seem like good suggestions. assuming extra selections are actually working, just not showing in the UI, SCI_ROTATESELECTION should allow a quick demonstration that will actually show up. I'll get started on that.</p>
