Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.4.0 Alpha, branch: master (modified), commit date: 2022-11-01 11:19, hash: rB3f91540cef7e
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Doubleclick to select full words in textedit fields (datablock names, file names in the File Browser etc.) does not work using tablets.
The resulting selection seems to be truncated from left to the cursor position (but not til the end of the word).
This works fine using a mouse.
This also works fine in the Text Editor.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

ui_tablet_textedit_doubleclick_select_words.blend801 KBDownload

  • open blend
  • when renaming the collection (just an example, any textedit should show this behavior), try to select full words using a doubleclick/tab with the pen
  • resulting selection is truncated from the start of the word to the current cursor position

Quick check shows that ui_do_but_textedit seems to do the same thing for mouse vs. tablet in regards to ui_textedit_move.
Maybe this is reset elsewhere shortly after?

@Harley Acheson (harley) : is this something you would be interested in?
