Looks like I'm doomed, then. :-( Thanks to all for the suggestions!

Thanks Phil, I'm trying to pull the boot out to cover the legs, so it's the legs which are visible and, I assume tend to receive the click of the tool. I could hide the legs but then I wouldn't know when I'd finished...

Thanks hborre, I tried that but it had no effect in this instance.

Thanks Laurie, I did set the group also - the boots are grouped to rFoot so I selected that, but it still wants to jump onto Vicki's rShin. :(
