How can I click on gutter to select a line in PHPStorm? (self.techsupport)

When using PHPStorm I've always been able to click in the gutter to select the whole line. I hadn't used it in some time, but now when I've installed this functionality doesn't seem to exist.

I've searched online and been through settings and can't find a way to bring this back. Anyone got any suggestions?

Failing that, there doesn't seem to be a shortcut assigned to select the line, but there does seem to be the ability to assign one. What's a shortcut that a normal person (I'm not a robot) would use?

(if it's relevant, I'm running Nobara Linux with Gnome)

Hi, triple click anywhere on a line is the way to select a whole line in Intellij IDEs. Also if you're trying to copy a line, when you have the cursor on a line with nothing selected and press ctrl c, it will copy and select the whole line.
