------- Additional comments from [email protected] Fri May 29 21:57:37 +0000 2009 ------- Currently, selecting objects layered on top of one another require the user to Control-Click (PC) or Command-Click (Mac) in order to select an object layered on top if the base object is selected. That is, if I have a callout layered on top of an image and accidentally select the image, the only way to select the callout layered on top is to either Ctrl/Cmd-Click it, or deselect the image first. I propose that this is a usability bug preventing the user from quickly selecting elements that he/she wants to move. Automatically selecting top-most layer is the default behavior in Microsoft Word, iWork Pages, as well as other applications, and OpenOffice should match this. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
