Issue/Introduction

There are 2 AWI issues concerning the below buttons in the Workflow Editor:

1. In Workflow Editor, the select button in the floating toolbar in the left hand side is not working properly.
   
   When you click the Select button to select multiple tasks, and tries to select some tasks, it does not select tasks, but it moves the whole workflow/canvas which is the same behavior as the Move button does.
   
   This issue has been introduced in 24.4.3 because it does not occur in 24.4.2.
   
   
2. The connect button is behaving differently in 24.4.3 compared to 24.4.2. In 24.4.3 you have to be careful to click exactly on the arrow symbol. In 24.4.2 you can click anywhere on the task box to start connecting the task to another. In 24.4.3, when you use the connect button and click  on the task box, it moves the task which is wrong.
