Selecting a SurfaceGui/BillboardGui and deselecting it does not remove selection visual

Hello! I noticed an odd bug with using SurfaceGuis and BillboardGuis while I was working with them in Studio. When you select a TextLabel inside of a BillboardGui or a SurfaceGui and then select the parent, it shows as selected even when it is not currently selected.

As you can see in the screenshots above, I don’t have anything selected but it shows that I have it selected which is rather confusing.

Reproduction (I am able to reproduce this 100% of the time):

  • Create a part and insert either a SurfaceGui or a BillboardGui.
  • Insert a TextLabel into that SurfaceGui / BillboardGui
  • Select the TextLabel in the explorer window and then select the SurfaceGui/BillboardGui that is the parent of that TextLabel and then deselect it by clicking onto something that is locked (like the baseplate) or the sky.
