Rectangle sizing and rotation handles don't work

When I use the Draw tool to draw a rectangle on the T Layer, then click on it, I cannot select or use the blue handles to change its size or orientation, no matter how close I zoom in. Clicking on them just clicks on the background and the rectangle is deselected.

Hi Hugh Foster,  Could you provide a screenshot of what you are seeing? Please show the entire VTT. 
Sure thing! The first one shows the handles. I click on the upper, rotation handle and they vanish as per the lower picture

I am wondering if you are "missing" the blue box and hitting the VTT in some way. That would deselect the art box.  Does selecting the art object and using E+Mousewheel work? Which browser are you using?  Have you tried Incognito (Chrome) or Privacy (Firefox) tabs? 
I zoom right in, so im not missing it. Also  it works normally on tokens, it only fails on drawn objects. No ive not tried incognito, i never used it. Why?

Which browser and you are using can make a difference in troubleshooting. Not all browsers behave the same.  Incognito or Private tabs can also make a difference in troubleshooting. Incognito/Private tabs can help by excluding certain elements such as cookies and extensions.

I have the same problem here, tried both Google Chrome and Firefox on ArchLinux, my friend has the same problem on Windows (google chrome). Using incognito mode, clearing cache/cookies and disabling adblock don't make any difference, but I noticed, that resizing and rotation works well when using "thin" mode, and don't work for other modes. Also it works on first load, until the mode is switched. After a single switch handles become unresponsive for all modes except "thin". UPD: Looks like copy-pasting drawn tokens also fixes handles (on copies)

In that case I suggest filing a bug report with the Devs via the Help Center  as the bug report forum is primarily for users helping users. 
Ah, I thought this was where support was requested. OK I have done that

but I noticed, that resizing and rotation works well when using "thin" mode, and don't work for other modes.  Thanks; I've tried that and it seems to work. Not much use as a workaround if I'm drawing out battlemaps but for basic area definitions it's a start. |t also fixes it if you select a box drawn in Regular and change it to Thin it becomes movable
