If any code is selected, script is run from beginning to cursor

[petrbouchal]

e.g. in script

library(dplyr)

print("hi")
mtcars %>%
  filter(gear > 3) %>% 
  filter()

with selection like

the whole script is run.

Not a dealbreaker, but surprising.

I can't reproduce this one.

So what happens is that the chain is run to the start of the selection. Which in this case is just mtcars.

I suppose it could make the split point at end of the selection, although I am not certain if that isn't potentially more confusing.

You're right, I misread the output - sorry!

I think what I expect to happen in this case is just for the selection to run, and I think setting the split point to the end of the selection might be closer to that. But also this is largely an accidental use case so if it is too much hassle to change the behaviour, the current one is probably fine.
