Public bug reported:
In the documentation for UITK TextArea[1]:
"Whether the TextArea should keep the selection visible when it loses
active focus to another item in the scene. By default this is set to true;"
In the documentation for QML TextEdit component (inherited by UITK TextArea):
"Whether the TextEdit should keep the selection visible when it loses
active focus to another item in the scene. By default this is set to false."
The component from UITK[3] only set an alias to the TextEdit property,
without changing its default value. This leads to an unexpected
behaviour whenever the default property is set to a different value by
the upstream project.
In Qt 5.0.2 the property was set to true[4]. Since Qt 5.1.1, the value
has been changed[5].
