Menu
After a lot of research, I finally decided to try to find help here.
My setup (for work):
When I try to use the "Column selection" feature, with Alt + Right click or Alt + Shift + Right click, it is not working.
This feature is really important for me, cause I edit a lot of configuration files... I already tried to change the gnome-shell default "windows key" used to interact with windows -> not better...
Would someone have an idea of whatever could be the cause of this issue ?
Thanks by advance.

Hold down the Alt key and select a column of text.
Keyboard shortcut for vertical block selection: To select code block vertically in your visual studio code, use Shift + Alt and then use the mouse to select lines vertically, from top-left to bottom-right.
For the ones who have tried to use the Alt Key + Mouse Selection, and failed. Try to Click the menu selection as follows:
Menu bar > Selection > {Click} Switch to Ctrl+Click for Multi Cursor. This will change the multi selection the with Ctrl key and mouse as well as enable to selection column selection with the Alt Key + Mouse Selection.
