Problem with "Automatically begin editing"

[doris]

The option to "automatically begin editing web page items when selected" is a very nice enhancement.
Alas, when it's selected, it's no longer possible to use hyperlinks on the page for navigation. It also seems impossible to leave the editing mode by choosing Item | Edit Web Page.

It would be great if there was a way to activate hyperlinks in editing mode - for instance via ctrl-click.

Hi Doris,
Yes, I have the similar issue. Yes, it's a needed feature. But it's unexpected that all hyperlinks are now dead. It's also unexpected that it turns out be not easy to switch on/off the feature. The switch on/off procedure is very tedious.
If you were Kinook, what should you do?

It also seems impossible to leave the editing mode by choosing Item | Edit Web Page.This is fixed in the latest build (4.1.0.3).

Thank you, Kinook, for your quick response.
Switching out of editing mode works now.
