Russell,
I happen to have a Mint21 VM using VirtualBox I've been trying out so I
installed GnuCash to test and see if I get the same issue.
I don't. Everything works as expected. There is no gray box and I can
highlight amounts from the left or right with no problems.
Note, I tested this on a fresh, stock install of Mint21 with all updates
(as of today) and the only other apps installed are the Vbox Guest
Additions.
So something must be amiss with your OS or theme. Since you indicated
you upgraded, there might be something that didn't translate properly.
Maybe consider backing up and doing a fresh Mint install if you can't
track down the culprit.
The fault lies not with GnuCash.
Regards,
Adrien

It seems every time I upgrade there is some deterioration in user interface

upgraded to Mint 21 which came with Guncash 4.8.
In this edition the edit of any amount now opens a grey box where the
number in it is unresponsive to the mouse so if you try to swipe across the
field to clear it it doesn't do anything. This is contrary to how all other
software since time immemorial behaved. You have to use the keyboard to
delete characters. How could the developers think this is an improvement?
