When I used Alt-(Mouse Select), it selects by block. However when I scroll the mouse down, it seems like the maximum length that I can select is based on the maximum length of the current line. So if I have a line of 50 chars followed by a line of 20 chars, I can only select a block of up to 20 chars wide even for the line of 50 chars. Could someone suggest if I am not doing the right thing? Many thanks.

Yes, that's correct.
