[RWP] Editing

[Indigo]

Patrick, is there another method of splitting off an unwanted item from 
the main item?
I noticed last night that Reaper 4.32 will not let me select the midi 
item; after I have even looked at the item in the onboard midi editor.
Actually, my usual  shortcut will not select the item; I can go to the 
item menu and select all, which works.
I'm using ctrl+shift+right or left arrow to select the item, but I think 
there is another shortcut to select an item, right; just can't remember it?
Thanks,
Indi
