User needs to click in specific area even though the popup says "click anywhere to continue"

I have a project that contains 1 multiple choice quiz question. That project was originally 1280x720, but I rescaled it to 1920x1080. Next, I copied that 1 quiz question into my main project that is 1920x1080. When I preview my project from that question slide and submit the correct answer, a popup says "press y or click anywhere to continue". However, you actually must click the area above that popup to continue. Clicking on the popup or anywhere below will NOT advance the slide.

How can I fix this issue?
