I’m guessing these are trying to tell me something important since my navigate button does not work.  
Assumed it meant I was outside some sort of boundary, but shrinking component didn’t help.

They indicate that the component is using an anchored layout. Right click and select layout or push Ctrl+L when the component is selected to see this dialog box.

Switching the component to Relative mode will change the resize handles to grey, but I can’t imagine that will fix your button.

Thank you. Just grasping at straws, here. One of these days, I’ll have enough to make a bale.
