The identify features tool returns the wrong selection when I try to select multiple features. In the image, I am trying to select the orange region, but QGIS is identifying the red region (located right above the popup window).

Identify Features Incorrect Selection

Note that clicking a single feature works correctly, only the "click-and-drag" works incorrectly.

I have tried the following:

  1. Using GeoPandas to convert the shapefile (originally in ESRI:102003) to EPSG:4326 before loading into QGIS. This does not allow me to select any features at all with the "click-and-drag" method (even when the project CRS is EPSG:4326). This change in behvaior makes me think the issue is with some CRS setting.
  2. Updating QGIS to 3.14.1

  • I can't reproduce the issue, so probably it is a CRS issue, yes.

  • I'd check the geometries for validity errors - these can cause undefined behaviour like this

  • @ndawson Thanks. I just ran the Geometry Checker Plugin to check for validity errors and am still having the same issue on the valid geometries. Jul 27, 2020 at 20:02
  • As per the help center it is OK to try and reproduce software problems in a Q&A here, but if you think this is a bug then be sure to submit it to the QGIS development team. Please post a link to the bug report here.

If anyone else runs into this, I fixed it by resetting my user profile in settings>user profiles>new profile
