    Description

      When editing code in Qt Creator, it is a common task to copy-paste some code from one place to another and adjust indentation — possibly by many levels. But when selecting a chunk of text and pressing Tab or Shift+Tab, Qt Creator indeed un-indents that chunk of code, but at the same time looses selection range, leaving us only with blinking cursor at the end of what was a selection range just a moment ago.

      This is one of those friction and pain points which makes Qt Creator unsuitable for daily text/code processing. Please, prioritize and fix ASAP
