help-wiki of select mode

[HeiKue]

I am currently working on translating the help pages into German.
I stumbled upon something in the English help pages regarding the select mode.

The table in the section Select the single object states that you can only unselect objects in combination with the Ctrl key.
But as far as I know and have had experience, you can toggle the selection.

Am I wrong or have I missed something?
Or is the help page incomplete?
If it is incomplete, I can complete it.

Very likely. I'd suggest to check against the software itself.

I'd suggest to check against the software itself.

Check against source code, too?
In use it works, but I don't necessarily know all the dependencies.
However, it is a very useful function if you only want to select a few objects individually, which should not be withheld from a user.
You select the first object individually by clicking and then add more with Ctrl and mouse click.

If you can :-)

Probably nobody knows. JOSM is too complex to know all details.

You are right, toggle is better, just take a look at the cursor details, though there seems to be some inconsistencies as unlike add (Shift) a double left mouse click does not work and when using left mouse hold plus drag it is unselect instead of toggle. Did not check any other modifier keys, yet.
