Editing PDF in Preview on osx Ventura is buggy

Preview Version 11.0 (1042.1)


Graphical editing PDF has bugs. After saving and re-opening a file the objects behave strange. Moving them leaves a kind of placeholder on the original position. So far the only workaround is to save-close-reopen-continue editing. Pretty annoying.
