can i place a text box anywhere with the updated preview?

Preview used to allow me to click anywhere to place a text box when the text tool was selected. Now when I click the text tool it places a box in the middle of the screen. Is there a way I can initially place the text anywhere I want without having to move a box already placed in the center?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

It appears that this problem has not been solved and the text box still goes to the center of the page instead of going where I click. This problem is marked as solved, but I don't see a solution. Can someone explain this to me? Also, please send this feedback to Mac/Apple support so they fix the bug!

IF you go to the original poster you will see that the following was posted:



"I accidentally pressed "solved". this did not solve my problem but you are correct about my question."
