Mac Publisher: clicking on one item often activates another

[VectorCat]

I'm working with a layout containing vector illustration. When I click on and expand the parent of what I want to edit, then try to click on a child item of that parent which I just clicked on and expanded, often a completely different item becomes selected! Such items are often higher up in the layers list, but...

if I've gone to the layers studio and clicked on the group I want to work on, shouldn't that be enough to instruct Publisher that this is what I want to have selected?

Possibly you click on a layers name when it selects unexpected layers(s) and you click on a layers thumbnail icon if only this layer gets selected?
