Dear Pro.Chen
I cannot exactly select the node in the map by citespace v5.4 and 5.5.
When I use the mouse to click the node, it's not the node I want to move .(当我用鼠标左键点选节点的时候，节点并没有被选中，有时候会选中距离很远的其他节点，因此无法对接点进行精确调整，我使用5.4以下版本的时候并未出现过此问题，但遗憾的是5.3及之前的版本已经不能使用了)
Thanks！
You need to pinpoint the node you want precisely, esp. when you zoom out. Try again in the latest version. I will add this to my review list.
陈教授：
非常感谢您的回复，我又尝试了，将图谱放大，然后用鼠标左键点击节点，但是无法精确的选中，有时候会选中距离较远的节点，不知道是不是JAVA版本的问题呢？请问
最新版的Citespace使用java哪个版本比较好呢？
非常感谢！！！

Hello Dr. Chen,
I'm also having a similar issue, I can select nodes but they are not the nodes that my mouse is hovering over. I've noticed that the node that is selected is always a set distance away from where my cursor is (a certain distance always at an angle of about 135° counterclockwise to where I'm aiming). This is using the most recent version 5.7.1.
Hello again Dr. Chen,
I think I might know what's going on though I'm unsure of how to articulate it, I'm going to try to attach a video of the problem. (My apologies for the quality, uploading a higher quality video required long upload times).
Thank you so much, this is great software!

The video is useful. Here is what is happening: you are in the selected mode, which means you already selected a node as you can tell links to its neighbors are highlighted and the rest of nodes/links are in lighter colors. You need to unselect the current selection by selecting the currently selected node and releasing it. Then you can select another node.
