Hi Paolo,
You can lock the elements that are on top of the map so they don't
"steel" the events. When I work in print composer, 90% of my elements
are locked and only occasionally unlocked if I really want to move
things around. You have to work more with the item tree (like in any
drawing app). Note that you can still select locked items in the item
tree and can change properties of locked items. Only interactive
selection in the canvas and moving elements is locked if they are in
lock state.

Hi all,
in Print composer, if an object (e.g. an ellipse) overlays partly or
totally a map, it will not allow to move the content of the selected map
below it. I can understand the rationale, but I believe that once
selected the map should be movable. This is especially unexpected in
case of an unfilled ellipse|rectangle|triangle.
More generally, I got accustomed to using the move content, but I still
think it's a bit cumbersome, and a better system could possibly be
devised. How similar software behave?
All the best, and thanks.
