Pink selection box doesn't disappear on deselecting symbols
I'm on page 14 of the manual and having some trouble with selecting items. I understand we pick command, then items, then do it. Got that. This is my first CAD program, so that took me several years to get over before I could grow up and come back to give CC a proper shot.
My problem is the selection box that appears and doesn't disappear when deselecting with ctrl-left click. I was selecting mountains and cities.
The pink selection box that appears around a selected item doesn't disappear after deselecting the item unless I zoom out and back in again, so I can't be certain I've deselected what I intended to. Why do I need to change my zoom level for this to refresh?
Additionally, why do some icons turn partially or wholy pink when selected and not others?
In case any of this is relevant: I am running Windows 10 Pro, CC3+ 3.76 on a Nvidia Geforce GTX 980TI, 16GB RAM, i7 6700k overclocked to 4GHz with a 1920x1080 BenQ monitor.

As for the selection box not disappearing, I am thinking that is probably a bug. To work around it, I recommend using Redraw instead of zooming though, that way you keep the focus on the area you are working with. Redraw is also nice because it puts the selected items back in the proper drawing order, which is a great help when selecting large entities.
