So you can follow advice of other posters on how to change your keyboard (look at which KB you have configured). Usually, when a keystroke has no meaning after a dead key, it defaults to printing the character of the dead key, followed by the new character that has been typed. For example ' + a might produce á if the quote key is configured as a dead key. to be dead! So no reaction when you press it.Ī dead key is gonna be waiting for the next key to be pressed, to alter what that key is gonna print. This is because you have a keyboard where ' ~ " are set to be a dead-key. This seems like new behavior to me - I am sure that in times past, I have successfully made a quick selection on a multilayered file with one or more of the inactive layers' visibility turned off.Edit: since people are complaining that this answer does only answer the "Why" question, and does not provide a solution to the problem (which wasn't the question asked by the OP), please find the solution to the problem in the next answer Voila! the selection marquee re-appeared, and the tool and the resulting selection marquee is behaving normally again.
After a few minutes of trying to figure it out, I activated the visibility of the 2nd layer. The *inactive* bottom layer was turned off (that is, the layer visibility was unchecked in the Layers panel). I was working on the top layer - the active layer. In my case, I discovered this behavior while working on a simple file consisting of two layers. If I clicked on the selection again, the marquee re-appeared as I held the mouse button, and it had the previous Quick Selection there - so the selection was still there, it just disappeared as soon as I let go of the mouse button. I had the exact same issue - while using the Quick Selection tool, the selection marquee disappeared as soon as I let go of the mouse button.
