Hello Michael !

Now that's very interesting - I am indeed in top view. So perhaps I ran into a few cases for which I needed/expected the opposite of the default behavior (that is to say, the opposite of what I described :D) and mistook that for the reverse.

I definitely need to look further into this to understand why I sometimes feel like the tool does the reverse of what I expect. Perhaps I was non-consciously assuming a bahavior based on the relative relationship between the start point of the rectangle and my current cursor location, or something of the sort. I'll think about it further and I'll let you know if I figure it out.

Thanks for the quick response as always !
