(Resurrected?) Bug: Typing Bible Reference Under Pointer

I have been having a lot of frustrations with this in the past two weeks. I know this has been an issue in the past, so it's certainly not new, but it seems to have gotten worse recently.

The issue happens when I am typing a Bible reference in the Sermon Builder. If I begin typing a Bible reference under the mouse pointer, as soon as the Bible reference becomes a hyperlink, the pointer engages the hyperlink and disables typing until I move the mouse out of the way.

While you may think this would happen relatively infrequently since the mouse pointer has to be under the Bible reference as it is being typed out, it actually happens frequently. Usually when I am inputting a Bible reference, I often have to stop typing, look up the Bible reference, and then reactivate the Sermon document by clicking a little ahead of where I want the cursor to go. Once I type the Bible reference, it is usually right where the mouse pointer was. 

Sometimes I type a whole sentence without looking, and only later find that it wasn't actually allowing me to type.

That channel info would be sufficient to divert interest as a beta is not supported except in the Desktop Beta Forum. However, that version was released to the stable channel prior to your report, so omitting that channel info would have assisted your case.

Just confirm that the problem exists in the current stable 36.1.

Ok… I will try to always post to the Beta forum from blog now on even if doesn’t seem to be related to the Beta build.
