Hi,

Is there a way to reliably restrict any kind of editing of an element's contents? I've played around with mouse-clicks and text selections and I am able to get an element to become selected with a mouse-click most anywhere within it, but it is not full-proof. For example, on the initial click, you can still drag graphics and elements around, edit attributes, etc.

The reason for my question is that I am enhancing InsetPlus to act more like native text insets and there is a user who wants them to behave exactly like them. I'm not sure if this is possible with the FDK.

Thanks,
Russ
