Highlighting text in old file selects text in new file

[MakotoE]

Describe the Bug
When I highlight text in a diff, text in both old and new files are selected.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open a diff for a file with multiple changes so that only some lines are shown. (I don't know what the feature is called but look at the screenshot.)

• SemanticDiff is being used

3. Highlight text on just the old file.

• Same bug also happens if you highlight just the new file, which highlights the old file

5. Text on the new file are highlighted as well.

Expected Behavior
Only text in the old file should be highlighted. The VSCode diff does what I expect.

I'm not entirely positive if that is expected, but I don't think the current behavior is useful in any way.

Actual Behavior
Text on both sides of the diff are highlighted.

Screenshots

Source Code
Not relevant as it happens on any file with multiple changes.

Hello @MakotoE,

Thank you for your report.

We're already aware of this issue, but haven't found the time to fix it yet.

Since it can be pretty annoying we will prioritize it, and ship a fix with the next VS Code release (if everything goes according to plan).

Best Regards,
Sebastian
