Summary	0003843: registration of pointer in navigation cube/cluster is off, makes clicking difficult
Description	The feedback and click actions for the nav cluster is out of register. The arrows and different blobs in the nav cube are supposed to turn blue to indicate they are sensitive when the pointer is over them. However, the pointer position is out of register with the graphics. For example, on the curved arrows at the top of the cluster, the pointer must be in the lower half of the arrow for it to turn blue and register a click. Similarly, the upper triangular arrow only registers in its lower portion. In the nav cube itself, the point blob in the lower right corner only registers when the pointer is near its lower edge. As discussed in this thread: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?p=287317#p287317
Steps To Reproduce	Load any file. Set the standard 3D view. Position the pointer anywhere along the upper part of the left hand curved arrow. See attached image. Note that the underlying curved arrow stays white in places when the pointer is over it; it only turns blue when the pointer is over the lower half of the arrow. It should be blue whenever the pointer is anywhere within the arrow, and should respond appropriately to a click.

garya 2019-02-19 04:20 reporter ~0012681	Fixed in attached diff wmayer should probably approve. Lines in question were apparently a hack present when the code was imported. Truncated comment leaves no clue as to why they were originally inserted; that problem may have disappeared long ago. Tested with latest v0.18 on master.
