Synopsis: Cancelled pick causes partial erasure of line to mouse cursor on next pick
Description
Bring class into Context window. Left-click in Context window on a clickable class name. Make sure cursor is blinking. Pick a cluster from Clusters window, move it over Context window, then left-click to cancel the pick. Right click on class that is highlighted (one you previously clicked on) and move mouse directly to the right of it and stop. Now we're in the middle of a pick but the text cursor is blinking so the portion of the line to the mouse cursor is erased, leaving a class oval cursor that is not connected to anything via a line.
To Reproduce
See above.
Problem Report Interactions
Still reproducible on Solaris 10 on SPARC. You have to left click in the Class tool on a class or feature name so that there is a blinking cursor. Then pick the same class or feature name that contains the blinking cursor and move mouse directly to the right, so that it is on the same line. Stop moving. The line connecting the stone to the class or feature is erased and never reappears unless I move the mouse. When I do move the mouse, the line that was supposed to have been drawn appears but there is now a second line connecting the class to the oval. Reopening report.
The latest version appears not to have this issue any more. Close it. Thank you for reporting.
