Description

I create a new composer, then click on the "Add arrow" button and then click on the blank space.
This gives me a piddly little arrow. So I mouse over one of the corner boxes and drag and see a nice satisfying bounding box which implies my arrow is about to get bigger. I release the mouse button and... the arrow moves to the new location but doesn't get any bigger.

"Attribute table" does this too. Other elements may also.

The reason this is a problem is because if I wanted to "move" it, I'd use the "move" hand.

I confirm it on master/ubuntu. If the user mistakenly just click instead of dragging a little the mouse, then it remains with an object that seems not resizable.

Jonathan Moules, on what version of qgis are you getting the issue? 1.7.4?
