Diagram Window object follows mouse cursor?

Hi,

Has this happened to anyone else? In a diagram window, after you generate documentation on an object, that object may follow your mouse cursor if it is detected within the title bar of that object, but in a laggy way, so your mouse can easily escape the confines.

I have a lot of tabs, several instances of PLSQL Developer, toggled Mutiple Document Interface mode, locked Windows once, even changed text size system wide, so this is pretty much impossible for me to say for sure what the cause is, just wanted to note that it happened to me today (also the first time I've used diagram window). I'm not sure any of that would cause this to happen, it's more like a mousemove listener forgot to turn off.

If the above is meant to be a feature, then it seems like there's a frame rate issue where the diagram window fails to update at the same rate as the mouse cursor changes position, as PL/SQL handles it correctly when the mouse button is held down. Of course, since I messed with text size settings, maybe that bugged out PLDev.

I am running PL/SQL Developer version 15.0.4.2064, Windows 10 Pro .19045

Sorry if this is unhelpful

In order to trigger it I think the following conditions must exist, at least in my limited testing:

1. The table title bar is visibly peeking from below, but the rest of the table is off screen
2. The table needs to scroll into view on a right click
3. The user clicks generate doc, table properties, or just clicking in an empty space on the dialog window
4. The table was not already selected before the right click
5. maybe the table should not be overlapping another table (not sure about this one)

the reason it starts moving in the video at the start is because i already triggered the bug earlier, so i have to reset the bug by drag-clicking

I trigger the bug again around 0:10. if you aren't able to reproduce, I'll just reset PL/SQL Developer and try it one more time, but I will wait for someone to try it first.

don't worry about the mac os mouse cursor, i recorded using VLC and it doesn't capture mouse cursor by default so i specified the mac hand png in the video
