How to deselect a single multi-selection point in Sublime Text 2

Question

I am finding I often will multi-select a bunch of single points (ctrl+click on the point) in Sublime Text 2, get to the end of the items I want to multi-select and then discover one in the middle of them all that should not have been selected.

I then have to cancel the multi-select (esc key) and start my selection all over.

Is there a way to deselect a single multi-select point? I looked all over the net and experimented with the traditional opposite items such as ctrl+shift+click on the point I want to deselect. No joy.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Answer 1

Try this one:

alt + Middle Mouse Button

this feature/shortcut is called subtract from selection.

Answer 2

In OSX ⌘+opt+shift+ left click removes an added multi-cursor.
