dia V0.97 issues

[Phil Fisher <Phil Fisher ipaccess com>]

Hi
I am new to dia but very familiar with the use of such software in general.
However, I am have found the following _possible_ issues using 0.97 (and yes I am aware that 0.97.2 exists 
but for various reasons its immediate use is not possible here).  Can someone indicate what I might be doing 
wrong or whether there is a genuine issue?

1) when creating a line from the toolbox, once added onto diagram, I tried to edit it (by changing its size - 
length - and its position).  I selected the object and green and red handles appear one at each end.  When I 
try to pick up the handle and move it, first the handle jumps to the centre of the nearest object (a box 
here) and then second time, both handles coalesce to one and I cannot do anything.  How do I do normal things 
with this object (line)?

2) when I create a grouped object, it is not possible to re-size that object no matter what aspect ratio 
property it is.  Is this a restriction (since I can re-size a box)?

TIA

Environment details:  Windows XP Pro SP3, dia V0.97, 3GB RAM, Pentium 4 CPU 2.8Gz, installed from MSI 
package, running as a non-admin user under an AD domain login.
