CobraMode,
Just don't forget you already deselected...
Just kidding as I tend to forget as well... 
It has been so long since I have used an older version.... before multi-select mode was made standard. Didn't you have to tell Wings3D what selection mode to use in older versions??? You can still just tell Wings3D what mode to use by hitting V,E,or F after deselecting once or twice.
Edit: I found I had an older version of Wings3D on my computer.... I see that in older versions that after a selection mode (V,E,F) was selected that mode remained active until another mode was selected....so now you have to tell Wings3D what mode to use again every time you deselect twice. Do you tend to use the same selection mode without changing? Maybe someone could add the ability to lock into specific selection modes??? I would think that most users switch modes quite often???
oort
