Tried to look at the issue, noticed a few things here, also left a screen record attachment:

1 — selected line 14, clicked "Format selection" in the context menu, line 11 is formatted (timestamps 00:00-00:06).

2 — line 14 is unformatted again, clicked "Format selection" from the action menu, as the action is the same as before, line 11 is formatted (timestamps 00:07-00:11). Two things bother me here:

2.1 — why line 11 is formatted, when it's not selected? is this expected or should be considered a bug?

2.2 — it seems like @hferreiro gets other results, from the description it seems like the specific line is not formatted in his case (or maybe @hferreiro means the whole buffer is formatted, not sure). Maybe it depends on the language server. Steps to reproduce may help.

3 — some language servers do not support range formatting (timestamps 00:15-00:24), so nothing happens, the error is logged. Should we try to remove the option "Format selection" from the context menu and the actions menu in this case? not sure if we could get this info from the language server, but maybe

Hi, @notpeter, I could try to resolve this issue if we discuss what needs to be changed here based on the questions above
