The underlying problem here is that the dotted line-selection rectangle
disappears as soon as the cursor enters another property field. This means that
the user is not getting correct visual feedback about the current state of the
dialogue, and it is not EXPLICITLY clear what the edit is being applied to. 

SUGGESTION: An obvious one. The dotted selection should be retained until the
user makes another selection.

Another little bug: After step 2, click, say, in one of the Padding fields, to
clear the dotted outline, then click back on the visible lower line. The upper
line reappears.

Another minor issue is that the colour palette opens upwards, obscuring the
preview. Could this be made to open downwards?

P.S. The helpfiles should also mention that Ctrl clicking can be used to select
more than one line.
