wrong objects are selected while selecting region with mouse.
Actions:Trying to select small rectangle area using mouse while holding left mouse button. (ScreenShot_1.jpg)
Expected result: only objects inside selection rectangle (text, lines, rectangles) are selected.
Factual result: objects inside selection rectangle are selected as well as other objects which are farther away (marked with purple arrows in ScreenShot_2.jpg)

Here you are. Drawing file attached.
Your selection rectangle contains several block references.
Some of these block references have block attributes attached to them. Block attributes (logically) belong to the block reference and are selected when the block reference is selected.
I think what likely happened here is that block attributes of a block reference were copied around to other locations. This is possible as block attributes have their own live, but this practice is certainly not recommended.
