Description Matthias Wienand

The FXFocusAndSelectOnClickPolicy currently does not disregard events when an explicit event target other than the host can be identified. However, when registering the policy on a hierarchy of visual parts with nested visualizations, a click on a leaf visual will select the whole hierarchy. Therefore, the policy should be guarded against processing events for which an explicit event target other than the host can be identified.

I added a check to the FXFocusAndSelectOnClickPolicy so that its host is only selected if it is the explicit event target, i.e. if the event target is registered for the host within the visual-part-map. The code is published on the master branch, therefore, I resolve this ticket as fixed for 3.11.0M5.
