PowerPoint Bug?

I tried to size the default text box in my PowerPoint slide (I dragged the right edge to the left to make it half its original width), and twice the application launched the "Insert Chart" dialog, and totally froze. I had to close PowerPoint with Task Manager.

Can you simply not size your text boxes??? Or is this a bug?

You can definitely resize the content placeholders.

My guess is you are somehow activating the icon for "Insert Chart" in the centre of the placeholder but I can't manage to reproduce this no matter what I try.
