In Bluescape, when you are editing a shape or notecard, and you attempt to pan away while in Edit mode, the workspace pans back to the element you’re editing.

# Steps to reproduce

1. Open a workspace.
2. Add an editable element (for example, a shape or a notecard) to the workspace.
3. Edit the element.
4. While in Edit mode, attempt to pan away using the :pan: (Pan) tool.

## Expected result

You can pan away from the element.

## Observed result

The viewport automatically pans you to the element that is in edit mode.
