Hi Ewald, I guess it selects the whole of the html once you are out of it, as you are only preventing default on the html widget, once outside the html widget normal browser functionality is back in play.
One way you could consider solving your issue is to have the elements you want to link together held within another panel and have the default events on that outer panel prevented; or you could look at previewing the event instead (so you trap the event before anything in your application gets to use it ) - this is what the DialogBox class in GWT does, so you could look at that to see how to use PreviewNativeEvent. (alternatively, maybe the gwt-diagrams library gives the functionality similar to what you want?
