Highlight Field to Modify Dismisses Window

Does anyone else notice that clicking to highlight text in a field and dragging left past the field entry dismisses the window you are attempting to edit? I notice this in many areas of the application including reporting, community, etc. and it is a major annoyance. I often click at the end of a string of text, hold click while dragging left to highlight the text when I wish to replace it. If you drag past the leftmost edge of the field, the whole window disappears and you have to bring it back up. 

Just me??

@sierra_evans Nope!  Me too!  I thought it was just my computer!

I’ve started noticing that too.

I just started using GS as an admin.  Seems like it quickly and easily loses “Focus” on the window

Every time I try to set a global filter, I have to CAREFULLY click back in the white space so the apply button can come up, without having to do it all over again

The Focus switch needs to be delayed a bit for us slower humans

I received an update from Support that Product has indicated this is working as designed. If that is the case, I would state that the design is sub-optimal and can be improved. Appreciate any additional consideration!

Hi Team, 

We(support team) confirmed that it is ‘working as designed’.

Having said that, request to improve this feature.

Note: I’m not able to replicate this issue in Firefox, but in Chrome.
