MacOS – Screen Forced Away from Dashboard

dashboarddashboard-widgetmacbook promacos

I have this issue on my Macbook Air that happens often if I select a gadget on the dashboard. I get forced away from the dashboard to the Desktop. I noticed if I previously selected one gadget and I select a different gadget it will do this. For example:

  1. I use the dictionary gadget
  2. Move away from dashboard to do something else
  3. Then go to the dashboard again to use a calculator
  4. Forced away from dashboard

Is this a software problem or is it normal? If it is normal, can I stop this from happening in "system preferences"?

Version 10.7.5
