Description
Hi all,
I noticed that:
when I switch from the active layer to another in TOC,
the "Select tool" I've previously choosed,
It switch automatically to "Pan tool" (hand tool),
this is a useless waste of time for those who need to select geometries from different layers.
Please go back to the old hold tool mode
best regards
Antonio

Perhaps it's plugin related?

the fact that you have "gdal tools" in the plugin list for QGIS 3 does not seems right.
I also tried to delete the plugin folder from qgis and restart it... the anomaly it still present
what folder (specify the path) have you deleted? have you tested creating a new profile in qgis3, restart qgis and try again?

My Profile was corrupted with a new profile all works fine
many thanks

Hi Giovanni,
today I've start to work with a new clean profile
-I've reinstalled the plugins approved and tested by you... (listed in the attacched screenshot)
-when I switch selection of active layer in TOC with select tool previously choosed the result is:
-the result is that the "select tool" switches on "pan tool" again
I hope you can consider to investigate which of this plugin acts on core interface giving birth to this Bug
on screenshot it is clear that my new profile is "prova" (with plugins added) as well as "project.qgz" attached in #19996 Issue
many thanks in advance

I (we QGIS) don't test any 3rd party plugin (or audit the code). The approval is only regarding the respect of some minimal condition (code repository and bug tracker available, etc.).

I suggest you to install the 3rd party plugins you use one by one, and after each one see what is the one that causes the problem, then let the author(s) know about the issue.
Cheers

issues caused by 3rd party plugins are not a QGIS problem (this is the rationale has always been followed). Also I'm personally not a developer. I'm more a tester, and in the context of the QGIS bug tracker I help keeping this platform as clean as possible, in a way that effectively only QGIS issues (so not issues caused by external plugins, or issues depending on specific local conditions) are tracked helping developers focus on real QGIS problems.

in my humble opinion anything acting on the main interface abnormally even if it or is not a direct problem of the software
becomes it when the software does not respond as it should

I (we) respect your opinion. It is just that the project has a different one: 3rd party plugins are super important but ultimately if they mess up QGIS this is not a QGIS problem (example: a LOT of tickets about QGIS crashes are reported here, many of those crashes are caused by 3rd party plugins and we always close such tickets as invalid).

Thanks for the explanation but I do not think it's right to delegate to end-users the burden of communicating with third-party developers
best regards ;)
