<pre>Description:
Clicking the control that shows position and size opens the dialogue box to
change, and if required, lock position and size parameters.
Clicking the control with no object selected, while it is showing the cursor
position, temporarily disables the cursor's select function.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Click outside all objects
2.Check position box contents follow the cursor movement.
3.Click the position or size box
Actual Results:
Nothing happens, but trying to select an object then fails until the select
function is re-enabled either explicitly or by another process.
Expected Results:
Nothing happens is good. Nothing changes would also be good.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
The easy work-around is to use the select tool.
Rather than disabling selection it would be really nice if the UI could show a
warning for as long as the click lasted. Once available there are a number of
situations when such a method could be used to improve the user experience, and
possibly reduce complaints from users who haven't read the manual.
