Why Can't I Edit Any Text In Canvas?   I created a Canvas doc to try out this new feature. I added TEXT boxes and STICKY NOTES to it. I invited others to Collaborate. They can double-click into the TEXT boxes and STICKY NOTES and edit the Text. I can't. Double-clicking the TEXT BOX or STICKY NOTES seems to be disabled for me (Owner) and I am unable to edit any text. I have to totally delete and recreate the TEXT BOX.
