[Fixed] Clicking unselected object sometimes does nothing.

[Edit]
This bug was fixed at v1.7.4. Thank you very much :thumbup:
This bug occurred only with v1.7.3.
[/Edit]

With v 1.7.3.
* Clicking a selected object now does nothing. This means you can double-click one of several selected objects to get the context menu.


I think this sentence doesn't say about unselected object.
However sometimes, clicking a unselected object does nothing.

[How to reproduce]
There are one blue box and one green hinge in the scene below.
v1.7.3_unselected_object_cannot_be_selected.phz
(9.66 KiB) Downloaded 23 times

After clicking blue box, you cannot select green hinge with single-click.
This issue happens not only hinge but also the other objects.

I think this is because single-click does nothing over selected object.

Hi, Algodoo lovers. Have you read next topic? Featured scenes suggestions
To translators: English.cfg changelog will be useful (even for me).

Yes I found this too, although right clicking the object or the like seems to work as far as I can tell. Rather annoying.

I've also realized that if you have multiple objects selected and you click on one of them, it doesn't deselect the others.

That's intentional, so that you can double-click a group of objects for menu.

Eh, it's just kind of annoying. Maybe you can make it so that if you don't double-click (within a certain time limit) it deselects the other ones? I'm just really used to clicking to select an object that's already selected.

That would be more annoying: a small delay between cause and effect? No thanks!

I know it is irritating when something you know changes, but I also know that you re-learn quickly. Click to deselect then click to select. Just one more step.
