How to turn off this function?

[Anonymous]

Hi 

Every time I click in a matrix visual, it highlights the row and greys everything else out. Whilst I can see why this functionality has been added, to me, it is just very irritating and I'd like to turn it off - I just can't figure out how.

Can someone help me out here?

Thanks

I don't know if there's a way to turn it off but you can just click the same place again to deselect the row.

Yes. Thats pretty irritating. But there is a trick to block that.

Put a Rectangular Box on the matrix and Set Fill Property to "Off"

This way, user won't be able to click on the matrix because of Rectangular Box in between.
