Bug Description
When using the Footprint editor, there is an offset between the mouse cursor and the crosshair. Moreover, the offset is non-linear, i.e. when I start the movement on the bottom-left, they both are at almost at the same place, but when moving to the top-right the offset becomes increasingly large.
It is also possible to see that the work area does not cover the entire window, but just a portion. I am attaching a screenshot of the problem.
I've managed to reproduce this error while creating a new footprint and when editing an existing one.
This basically renders the footprint editor impossible to utilize.
