It happened today for the first time in two years using Hotglue (at .me). Proved in Chrome and Firefox.

Create many text objects and write in them, one by one.. Align them horizontally.

Go back to viewer mode and you find a mess in their positions.

Try to fix it, so go back to edit mode and notice many annoying things:
1. position of objects remains a mess.
2. you can just enter text edition in 1st and 2nd objects. Every time you click the following ones -wherever they are- you just get 2nd object selected. No way to get text to edit in the next ones.
3. moving one object moves the ones that were created afterwards (it's just chronological, same if you created it from context menu or if you cloned another one and changed text. Its not a spacial matter either, like dragging one object brings all others on its right or something).
4. delete the 2nd and you delete the rest from the 3rd on.

Thanks
M.

Hi, i'm still working on it, and I cannot add anything else but this clue: I finally started taking all the content out of the text boxes (which were long paragraphs full of html, by the way). These now empty objects released the others and they could be deleted without affecting the rest.

I was urged to finnish and I chose a work-around on the same page yesterday, but I'll reproduce the issue too, and share the example.

Thanks very much.
Best.
