Has anyone seen this "glitch"?

Putting this to general just out of curiosity to get some visibility because I am not at all sure it's a bug.

 

I send a lot of BoL gear around, a lot. I always have my inventory screen on the right side of my screen and my character screen on the left side of the screen. The other day, I sent 8 x BoL items to an alt and proceeded to put those on. I clicked items in sequence and *buff* when I watched at my character tab afterwards, I had no pants on! The disgrace. Logged the other character to check I had not left those there even thought I was fairly sure I had not. Checked buy-back tabs on vendors with both characters. Nothing. Cargo buys, legacy bays and in the end, pretty much every character in any ways possible.

 

I eventually thought that there is a companion (I never use'em, I don't gear'em, I never click it) and went to check. There were my pants. Däym Treek, däym. Anyhow, amazingly and this is what I think happened. I might be insane, but still: While I am clicking on inventory window (miles away from companion tab), it had somehow swapped to companion tab for ONE item in the middle of clicking and everything else went to the player character. Okay, sounds insane. Has this happened to anyone else? I also swear this has happened to me once before, I would not have thought it possible otherwise. :o

I think if you hold shift as you click to put on gear it puts it on the companion.
I know they added that a long time ago, and it worked fine for a little while, but it's been a ages since it's worked for me and I always wondered if they took it out.

 

If I remember correctly, after they added it, it wouldn't work on BoE gear.

Once you had equipped it and it was bound to you, it would work.

Maybe they decided it wasn't working right and took it out or maybe it's just bugged again.

I tried it just now and shift-right click does nothing but pick up the item from my inventory just like left clicking does.

Much thanks for the information.

 

I actually made a ticket before I found the item. Then when I found it I updated my ticket only to get the most sarcastic and condescending reply along the lines of "...Not many people would think to check their companions..."... GG BW. I did pull a little stunt after that.. but lets see if it'll lead me getting in trouble or not, or if they can take it with similar humor!
