> **Analysis :**
> The issue is that on Win32, if the window is not active, we dont receive mouse events because we release the capture
> So the problem is the following:
> We start selecting text from the right to the extreme left.
> Then we switch to another window( the window lose focus ), and we release the mouse
> But when we return to the window, the caret drag is still active and does not stop. as the window did not recieved the mouse release event
>
> **Proposed fix:**
> In the Caret class, we added a logic to ignore the drag if the focus was lost due to window switching unless a new mouse press happens
