Noticed this as well. To be a bit more specific – without looking into this specifically – it seems as if you're actually clicking through the window's canvas (e.g. selecting the parent node instead). So you can't select the window by clicking either.

Still an issue for me on v4.3, as well as the latest 4.4 dev4 snapshot on Windows 11.

Any updates on this? Not only are you unable to select the Window node itself via the viewport, but you are also unable to select any of its children.

Not only are you unable to select the Window node itself via the viewport, but you are also unable to select any of its children.

For nodes inside a Window, there is a PR to fix this and other issues about it, see

Controls can be selected in the window node with latest 4.4 dev 7, BUT the window is still not selectable. This is a major disadvantage if you want to drag them to the perfect spot or even select it to edit it. I hope so much this can be fixed.
