I will post a link to my installation, you can see that it does work this way and you may even find out how it works.

EDIT: Here is the link

I've just tried this function in Notepad++, it works as expected. R-click moves caret, but selecting a part of the text seems to stop the caret moving but allows the R-click context menu to appear.

Maybe that's how it's done. R-click moves caret except when a selection is made, then it temporarily disables this, allowing you to make a selection and then copy the selection to the clipboard using the mouse.

>R-click moves caret, but selecting a part of the text seems to stop the caret moving
I don't understand- how N++ moves the caret but the selection remains? it shows caret independently on seleciton??

In Cud - selection is just extension of the caret. so, caret moves -> selection must move together with the caret OR reset.

No, not quite. In N++, R-click moves the caret as normal. But when a selection is made, moving the caret is cancelled on R-click and so the selection remains and then the context menu is shown.

It's as though the act of selecting text disables moving the caret allowing you to keep the selection and perform actions on that selection via the context menu.

Hm, then it's possible to do that. Will see.

+ add: improve option "mouse_rt_click_moves_caret", so that right-click over selection never resets that selection

Try it in beta, pls
