I keep pressing on the empty space to deselect my nodes, so I can see the path without the nodes editing GUI. Maybe doubleclicking outside should deselect or at the least go back to the select shapes tool?
Okay, right now we have the following UIX: If shape editing tool is "temporarily" activated from within shape selection tool (by either double-clicking or pressing Enter key), then double-clicking or pressing Enter exits editing "mode" and returns back to the selection tool. If the tool was activated not temporarily, but using the toolbox, the switch doesn't happen (and that was done intentionally) I'd say we need the following requirements: 1) Double-clicking and Enter work as they work right now (not exit if activation is not temporary) 2) Clicking or double-clicking outside the shape should deselect the shape (depending on the tool activation mode)
