Variable: cua-highlight-region-shift-only

cua-highlight-region-shift-only is a customizable variable defined in cua-base.el.gz.

This variable is obsolete since 24.4; use transient-mark-mode(var)/transient-mark-mode(fun) instead.

Value

nil

Documentation

If non-nil, only highlight region if marked with S-<move>.

When this is non-nil, CUA toggles transient-mark-mode(var)/transient-mark-mode(fun) on when the region is marked using shifted movement keys, and off when the mark is cleared. But when the mark was set using M-x cua-set-mark (cua-set-mark), Transient Mark mode is not turned on.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 24.4.
