In Publisher (latest beta and latest full release), in a facing pages document, with "Select object when intersects with selection marquee" checked in the tools settings, the selection marquee will not select any objects on intersection that have been cropped with the vector crop tool. I have tested it on curves, frame text, artistic text, and images. I have been able to replicate it 100% consistently with the criteria described above. More information: It will ONLY occur on a facing pages document. Any objects that have NOT been cropped with the vector crop tool will select fine on intersection. If objects are cropped by placing them inside curves or within a picture frame, it won't occur (the objects will be selected on intersection). The cropped objects can still be selected by surrounding them completely with the marquee, or by clicking on them directly, just not on intersection with the marquee. It occurs in all three personas: Publisher, Designer, and Photo. It occurs in all documents including new documents. I'm using windows 11 version 22H2. Will occur with hardware acceleration on or off. This seems like a minor issue but it becomes extremely frustrating when for example, I am working on a large document with many pages full of images, and I would like to select a bunch of images to move them to another page, I drag the marquee to intersect them all and the ones that have been cropped are left behind when I move the selection group as they were never selected. So many times I have had to undo and then select them one at a time manually by clicking on each, as completely surrounding them with the marquee would intersect and select adjacent text or other objects that I do not wish to move. Earlier I wasn't sure if this was a bug or if I had missed something, so I made a forums post, linked here: Screen recording is also attached. Marquee Intersect Selection Issue.mp4
