Problem: When I click on a text object to edit, it moves to a different location and isn't highlighted

Problem with Prism 6 and 7 windows: You have a graph that fills the page. When you click or double-click on a text object or legend, it jumps to the left and is not highlighted.  This only happens when  The issue the graph axes are maximally stretched over the entire length and width of the graph sheet, and location of numbering/labeling for X axis is horizontal. 

Workarounds:

  • The best workaround is to make the graph slightly smaller (manually by dragging axes or by ‘Resize Graph’ menu from ‘Change’ menu)
  • An alternative workaround to try is to change the numbering/labeling for X-axis in the ‘Format Axes’ dialog from horizontal to angled.
