When I select the "Change Object" icon, a transient window with information
about the selected object appears at the same location on the screen no
matter what object I select. If the object I select happens to be in the
region that the information window is displayed, I can no longer see the
object when I try to make changes to it! I got around this by moving the
window (with Alt-F6) but it would be more reasonable for xfig to position
the window away from the object being changed, if at all possible.
