Details:

I found that sometimes double click doesn't work to highlight all as expected.



function something(var1,var2)

var1 = sin(var2);
alpha = cos(var1);
a(1) = 1;
for ind=1:10
  a(ind)=ind;
end

end


I can double click on any word above to activate highlight all except
sometimes some of the variables in the for loop (a and ind) depending on how I
click on them. For example, double clicking in the middle of 'a' or either
'ind' in the loop doesn't work, but clicking to the far left or right of any
does (though double clicking to the far left seems to highlight the wrong
portion of the text, but does do highlight all on the variable). I don't think
this is an exclusive list of ways it fails, but is just an example.
