[Bug]Story tab dialog boxes and mouse bug

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
In the story board mode in the editor if you have a text box (as though you're editing a dialog) that expands over top of the next item, the mouse will be focused on the next item and not the text box.

Basically I can't select text with my mouse because the mouse thinks the text box doesn't have priority over what's under it.

    I just click the top of the text where it's still selectable, and use the arrow keys on the keyboard to navigate through the text box to the bit I want to edit.

    I do to but it's still a bug as far as I see.

    As said before... you need to adjust your window size if needed and keep your scrolling and your text boxes from overlapping the other windows... don't wait for a fix... you need to adapt your editing habits to avoid these problems..

    My intent wasn't to complain about how I can't do something, my intent was to make a bug known.
