Export > Preview time selector immediately unselects itself after clicking to edit it

In the Export > Preview pane there's a blue time thing that says where the playpoint is. When i click on this it opens for editing like so:

But as soon as I click somewhere in there to put the cursor there to type in my edits, it immediately unselects. 

There's no way to put your cursor where you want in that little time box to edit with your keyboard where you want. The only way I can edit it with keyboard is to click to activate it and then use my keyboard right/left arrows to navigate from the right hand end of the string. 

 

NOTE: This DOESN'T happen in the video view panel when I'm Editing a video, only in this Export > Preview screen.

Do you mean blue like the first screen shot or the second?

I don't want to just type over the whole line, I just want to click to enable editing and then click to insert the cursor where I can start typing from. I can do this in the Editing screen, not here in the Export > Preview screen.

When its blue you do not click on the numbers but type them in on the numeric pad.

If you want to go to 39 seconds and 5 frames you type in: 3905.

if you want to go to 1 minute, 3 seconds and 6 frames you type in : 1.03.06
