Description

System Information
Operating system: Win 10 Home 64 bit
Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce 1050 Ti

Blender Version
Broken: 2.8 up to 3.3 (tested on 2.79, 2.83, 2.93, 3.1, 3.2, 3,3)
Worked: 2.79

Short description of error

If you select a keyframe in the Dopesheet with a single click while in Pose Mode it deselects all bones in the 3D view. If you drag-select a keyframe with Box Select instead it selects the keyframe without losing your bone selection.

This only occurs with bones in Pose Mode. Selecting Dopesheet keyframes in Object Mode does not affect object selection in the 3D view.

NOTE: Keyframe selection should NEVER affect workspace selection.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Open example scene.
  2. Select any bone on the armature in Pose Mode
  3. Select a keyframe with one click in the Dopesheet. This deselects the bone. (BAD)

For comparison:

  1. Select a bone again, then select a keyframe using drag select Box Selection. This does not affect bone selection. (GOOD)
  2. Go to Object Mode and select the Cube, then select a keyframe. This does not affect object selection. (GOOD)
