I am trying to block select a set of variable length lines. When I select those lines using Alt + mouse select, I can select only till the length of the shortest line.
E.g : Paste the following lines in Notepad++
line 1
line 2 but a bit longer
line 3 longer
Now, try to block select all, you can select only till the length of line : 3. This is not working properly
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Yes, this is the current behavior. This has been reported and discussed before, as you can read elsewhere on the forums.
You might consider copying "the other parts of the (destination) lines" in front of these lines varying in length (and copying the whole thing back).
