Highlight current line to line number @@@@

I use shift + V to highlight current line

If I want to drag that line till line @@@@ WHILE KEEPING THE VISUAL MODE (highlighted), what command should I use?

(I tried :@@@@, but it moves to line @@@@ without keeping the visual mode)

You can't keep the visual mode highlighting because moving the line implies leaving visual mode.

All you can do is re-highlight the line after the move…

  1. Move the current line to before line 324:

    :m324-

  2. Reselect the line:

    V

Which begs the question: why highlight that line in the first place?
