Can't select options in or edit dialog boxes was created by pauhana658
After installing Monterrey on an M1 MacBook Pro, I cannot interact with the dialog boxes in idoceo.
For example, if I want to delete a column, I select "Erase" from the popup menu and I get a dialog asking if I want to erase the column. As soon as I click anywhere in the dialog, including the big red button, the dialog disappears and no action is performed. This happens with every type of action that produces a dialog box.
In another example, I want to send graded assignments back to the students via email, so I select the Share button, then Email Report. This brings up a dialog box with fields for Subject and Text and hierarchical menus for Columns and Options. I can make selections for Columns and Options, but I can't edit or even select whatever text may already be in the Subject and Text fields.
As a result of these issues on the MacBook Pro, I've been using the iPad Pro to interact with dialog boxes and return assignments to students, but it's a huge hassle. Any ideas about what might be causing these issues on the MBP and how I can fix them? Thanks!
