While adjusting the padding I noticed I was being hit with "Drop Image to Import", I was curious if it was just due to the padding slider as it seemed repeatable.

I tried another slider and the issue went away.. I couldn't reproduce it.

Then while messing around I noticed I could highlight text above the sliders and when I did I could click+hold and drag a ghost of the text around and as soon as I did that I was presented with "Drop Image to Import".

When I let go of the text nothing happened except the popup clearing.

In the screenshot the cursor is invisible, so I boxed in where the cursor was holding the selected text.

Additionally when I did a full screen capture using winshot it minimized the application and when I tried to return I was soft locked into "Drop Image to Import"
