Public bug reported: I was working on a simple drawing of a box with text. I selected the box and attempted to scroll the color palette at the bottom of the screen. I had trouble grabbing the scroll button, but eventually was able to grab the scroll button and scroll the palette to the blue shades. I selected a fill color for the box. I then moved back to the drawing area to resize the box. I was unable to deselect by clicking elsewhere on the screen. I could not select any of the tools. It was as if the scrolling of the palette could not release focus back to the drawing area. I could not select a different color fill. The only thing I could do was scroll the color palette and close the program by clicking the X in the top menu bar.
I should have been able to scroll the color palette, select the color fill, and return to my drawing. I was able to close the program and reopen and continue working as normal.
