Cannot select multiple internal faces

[uhelfenstein]

Problem description

In the past, it was possible to select multiple internals e.g. for a pad operation. Now I cannot figure out how to do it again. I tried with only clicking, with ctrl+clicking, alt+clicking, shift+clicking. However, the operation is only applied to the last internal face clicked.

Workbench affected?

None

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a sketch with multiple closed geometries
2. Close the sketch (check if internals are generated or activate "Make Internals" in the property view of the sketch
3. Try to select multiple internals
4. Press the button to start a pad operation.

Expected behavior

Multiple internals select able and applied to the operation activated after selection. Furthermore, it would be much more intuitive (comparable to other CAD's) if a selection would be possible after the operation is already activated. The best would be to show all the selected objects in the window. This would make it possible to be used once the operation is finalized and another geometry should be added.

Actual behavior

Only the last internal clicked works in the operation.

Last known good version (optional)

I am pretty shure it worked in previous versions. It is even visible in the video you promoted this feature. However, I do not have other versions at hand to verify at my own.

I have an update. I tried it in the newest version and it is actually working if I press CTRL and mark other faces. I was confused by the preview. The problem is as follows... here you see a simple geometry with a hole. I selected both internal faces and the preview of the pad tool looks as follows as shown in the picture below. It looks like the hole would not be padded.

If I press okay, the result is as shown below. The rectangular shape AND the hole are padded.

I have two requests to improve this. First, the colors of internal faces, selected faces and preselected faces (on hover) are very hard to distinguish. I did not find an option in the settings to change them. Is it possible to make them clearer?
The second improvement would be to not showing the contour of the inner shape in the preview. There is no way according to the preview to tell, if the hole is padded or not.
