Strike Rapier, sorry I'm unable to post a reply to beta. This was my
solution:
Click on "options" at the top of your screen.
Click on "configure controls".
Look down the list until you see "Toggle move mode"
Set this using a key not currently in use.
(My middle mouse button will not toggle move mode as shown in this setting.
I don't know if it is my mouse or a beta bug. I have chosen an application
key.)
After I set this to be controlled by my new key preset, I'm able to get out
of mouse mode.
By the way, I can sympathize with you. It is extremely frustrating. Hope
this helps.
The Lady
