Hi,
I am using ArcGIS "Pro" 2.8.8 and recently have been having a lot of trouble working with graphic elements in the layout.
I have a legend made up of graphic elements and when I go to the Layout tab in the elements group and select the 'Select' tool (with the default select by rectangle option active) and go to select an element it will either do nothing, or select an element nowhere near to where I clicked, and will persistently select that particular element regardless of where I click. If I draw a box around an element it will select a whole bunch of other elements unrelated to the one I wanted to select. The Polygon, Lasso, and Circle selection options also do the same thing. Only the Line selection option works as it should, selecting just the elements the line crosses through, but it's not a very good way of selecting elements.
Has anybody else had this issue and is there a way to stop it from happening? It is very frustrating spending hours trying to edit and arrange some simple elements in the layout which in ArcMap would take minutes. We are expected to move away from ArcMap and into Pro, but Pro is buggy, clunky and not user friendly.
