Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
[Please fill out a short description of the error here]
I try to move the mesh in sculpt mode with grab brush, but I get nothing from it except lag. The other bug is I try to select vertices with box select but it deselects them after I select them.
The box select depends on distance, I zoom away far enough I can select them.
The grab brush is different. I zoom away and I can grab the mesh and move it, but it sometimes will not move it anyways.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
[Please describe the exact steps needed to reproduce the issue]
[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]
Load up the scene I include and try to grab the sculpted head close up. The scene should be close up already.
I will attach the blend file.

Size matter :)

Grab has always its own way of doing things, grab brush need to be big to see the effect. So make the size a bit bigger it will work.

Note to Devs: One todo will be to have all Brushes in Blender remember his own size, like particle hair brushes do.

Changing the size does allow me to move the mesh. Problem with this is the brush is too big for the operation needed. However, I'm happy to know this solution.

With the grab tool you need to get the feel of it ( It took me long time to understand how to use this brush) or just mask the part you don't want to influence ;)

Just check you mesh again you, Now i m pretty sure this is not a bug, You don't have enough vertices you have to apply that subsurface modifier. <- that is your problem. Apply sub mod. you will be good to go.

The subsurface modifier was the problem. Thank you for that. That fixes the grab brush.
But what about the vertice select?

This is getting noisy, start a thread in Blenderartists.org and ask there, we can continue over there.
