#15 Inserting a GUI object can't be cancelled immediately

[Stéphane Aulery]

If I add a GUI object but instead of clicking Ok, I click Cancel, then the object is still inserted in the configuration.

This applies to all Operating Systems.

Clicking on "Text" inserts a new text object and then also opens the "Edit text" window for convenience. I guess we could make it such that when pressing "Cancel" the newly created text object is also auto-deleted. The same applies for "Image" and "Space".

But it gets tricky for "Group", "Register" and "Window" since there we also move objects inside the newly created group.

How strong do you feel about this? Would it be better if clicking "Text" only creates the default text object and the user has to double click it for changing its contents?

Much better. It would be more in line with what the editor actually does.
