Description Larsen 2007-11-16 11:48:11 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Hello,

when I press the delete key while editing text inside a flowchart box the box itself gets deleted.

Lars

Steps to reproduce:
1. Draw a flowchart box
2. cursor is automatically inside box ready to enter text
3. press delete key


Actual results:
the object is deleted

Expected results:
I would expect the text to be deleted as long as the cursor is inside the box. Though, the box should be deleted when the box is selected but not in edit mode.

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
A workaround is to use backspace instead of del.
