Description

Describe the Bug

capture WMssBd_optimized

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open the start demo
  2. Activate connect tool
  3. Drag on empty canvas
  4. See interesting label highlight effects happen

Expected Behavior

Labels do not highlight unnecessarily and/or highlight transports a clear meaning to me.

Environment

  • Browser: Chrome 120
  • OS: Linux
  • Library version: v17.0.0, demo.bpmn.io

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the connect tool's drag behavior on empty canvas and trace how label highlighting is triggered. Look for mouse event handlers that inadvertently apply highlight classes to labels when no valid target exists.
