Ok the story editor selects the text frame. That is OK by me. Still, you could have a drop box there enumerating the existing frames and button click --> make active that one.
Then palette updates to show the properties of that frame. I do not like mere clicking in a space; it upsets things. Word Perfect has this 'shadow cursor' and a 'real' cursor and you never know which is which. In Quark too the mouse cursor and the text cursor are in different places. I have put text in the wrong places there many times. bart at solozone.com bart
