Firefox, IE, and Edge should be ok.<div class="">We’re tracking it here: <a href="https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/3805" class="">https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/3805</a></div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">It’s very similar to another issue that I fixed in December, so I think I can probably get this fixed before the next iD release in a week or two.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The summary of this issue is - your browser generates lots of events for things like mouse button clicks and releases (mousedown and mouseup). We use these to know whether you are clicking on things or dragging the map around. Sometimes Chrome on Windows just loses the events - so we see a mousedown but not a mouseup, and the user is stuck mid-click while iD waits for an event that’s never going to happen. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The fix is to just add some code to watch for this condition. If we’re waiting for a mouseup and we detect another mousedown, we know that the browser “lost” the mouseup event and we should just carry on as if the user is clicking a thing for the first time. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Hope this is helpful..

Some updates were made to iD some weeks ago. Apparently, somehow, it made clicking on a feature to select it more difficult. I use Firefox, and usually have to click 3 or 4 times to get an individual item selected.<u class=""></u><u class=""></u></p>
