Box select, circle select, and lasso select only seem to work when selecting the vertices.

umm If you select two vertices using say box, you do get an edge. what am I missing ?

if the selection process is changed, this will be fixed automatically.
If not, then this is working as intended.

It works differently than the 3D viewport. I think think this is a known issue because it exists in 2.79

It doesn’t select the edge if you only box select the edge

@ankitm It's don't see this as a duplicate of my other report. The other one works totally fine in UV Sync mode turned on, while this one does not, see the video. Also the other is about simple click inconsistency that happens in either edge or face mode, while this one is only about edge mode.

@EitanSomething back in 2.79 there wasn't a tool panel in the UV editor.

Those tools click drag select correctly for vertices and faces In 2.82. Nowadays in 2.83 they also work for island selection, see #67446. Now only edge drag select is missing, it works for vertex/face/island, I hope someone can fix it for edges.

I am reopening this because I don’t believe it is a duplicate.

There was no tool self but you could box select. I think I made a mistake testing 2.79 and didn’t turn on edge select so I will test again

in latest build, It's only wrong for edge selecting. Face and Island modes are correct and do not select individual vertices: 2020-05-04 01-34-19.mp4

This was more of a TODO than a bug, even so it's good to support this.
