only slightly similar, on desktop when making a visual selection, dragging cursor from x,y to another x,y then releasing? i'll run into problems with early releases sometimes, could be hardware, network, whatever

if the tool i'm using has this option, i will use it and love it:

    -D, --nodrag
      Allows you to click twice to indicate a selection,
      rather than click-dragging.

picknplace reminded me of it
