[NEEDS SAVES] [PS/XB] Unable to Clear Message Box if you Pick an object up

@PoptartJuniper Are you still having this issue after patch 1.15? If so, could you possibly share a video or save file? Thanks much for the help! https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/INFORMATION-How-to-Send-User-Files-to-The-Sims-4-Team/m-p/6065...

@SimGuruNick I just tried to replicate it by holding random objects while a rocket mission was going but I was able to clear the message boxes. So, no I do not seem to be having this issue with patch 1.15. I have never purposely tried to create the problem issue before either. It always happened just as I picked up an object and a box appeared almost simultaneously. If it occurs randomly again I will post.

When a parenthood pop up pops up and I am trying to drag something to the trash while I still have the food in my hand i can’t click off of it. 

@baykay12345  I play on the PC so want works for me might not work for you.

Try dropping the item in a sim's inventory if you can open one by clicking on the portrait and then the inventory button.  That usually works for me.

@baykay12345 Does that happen every time or was it a one time thing ?

EDIT: Seems this was already reported for PS4. I merged

It happens every time.

When picking up a plate as a sim is sitting down to write a book. The prompt appears on screen to Name the Book, and you cant click OK or any option because of the plate... so you have to close the game and restart Sims 4, losing progress? Happened twice now, cant seem to figure out any way around it

I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting my controller, and mashing alllll the buttons and button combos lol

I also just tried using another controller, and then my controller died so the "controller disconnected" prompt popped up, replacing the Name the Book prompt, but i still can't select OK, so at least it's not just exclusively the name the book prompt...

If so, I can have your post merged with the bug report.
