Report history
I just tried it at a new table and it does give the "this move is not authorized now". Seems like it either needs to have the confirm removed, or be allowed to click on different areas before you confirm.

^^
In that example, i've clicked on the top right cell in the bottom left grid. I've then tried to click on the middle cell in the bottom left grid (and the middle grid is highlighted as though it's allowed).
Thanks for your report.
To make it clear: the grid highlight is only an informal thing, which shows the next grid at hovering it. Moving your cursor off it will make the highlight disappear, no matter what.
If you don't like the way it works, you can switch to on other confirmation meta like "Double click" or you can turn it off completely. The default confirmation meta requires you to cancel your selection before choosing new place to play.
