Open the Basic IDE Add a dialog Add a control Now in the properties panel, left for me, try to select e.g. the text for label > Dragging the mouse over the text tries to move the whole panel the text can be selected by hovering over the text :) Annoying. One can also not select the text my key board.
TODO: find out when it changed..
It has always been like that since the property browser became dockable It's probably not very helpful in relation to fixing it, but the commit which introduced the docked browser (and the bug) was this one: commit 7d5911e40855ac6234590e008927c9b819084ad0 Author: Uray M. János <uray.janos@gmail.com> Date: Fri Aug 31 12:44:47 2012 +0200 Basic IDE: Docking property browser under object catalog
@matthew: thanks for noticing this @caolán: can we ask you advise here pls?
Its receiving buttons downs, but not button ups for some reason. Presumably a parent window is filtering out some events getting to it.
These MultiLine edits pass mouse-up/down events to their parents, while "normal" edits don't. I feel the multilines should act like non-multi lines and swallow the events also and not pass them on.
