Cannot delete Visio shape, has odd mask when selected Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
So, I'm relatively new to Omnigraffle Pro (OGP), but I'm loving it (for the most part) so far! I'm in the process of converting many wireframes from Visio to OGP, and I'm running into a particularly frustrating problem.

Word bubbles. WTF? I see a way to recreate them in OGP, though they're not as robust as the ones in Visio, but that's not my current problem.

Sometimes I can't delete them, and they behave very strangely. When I select one, the entire canvas grays out, except for a small area... it's like some sort of invisible mask is invoked upon selection of this shape. (See attached screen-shot.) I can't delete the shape when it's in this state... but I don't know what state to disable!

I've searched extensively on Google, and even on these forums, so I'm forced to come on here and whine about it, in hopes that an OG staffer can explain this obscure "feature" to me and how to obliterate it from my precious wires.
