FM 9.0 bug/quirk/limitation?

[Spectrum Writing]

Nope, I didn't SHIFT-click. Clicked on the tag and clicked CTRL-m to open
the Paragraph Designer. and I did click a bunch of other places as well -
even the usual "outside the text flow" click trick didn't work. Sigh.

Thanks Jeremy.

As Rick correctly pointed out, this is a Mif2Go feature working
as designed.  However, if you did not SHIFT-click, it should
not be invoked.  And if you click anywhere else, it should clear
immediately.  If either of those statements are not true, it is
a *Frame* bug, not a Mif2Go bug, and indicates further breakage
in the FDK control over the UI.

I'm as frustrated as the others who have posted here recently
about the severe damage to FDK functionality introduced in 9.
We can only hope that FM 10, whenever it comes out, fixes some
of these new Frame bugs.
