I don’t speak English so I use google translator.
Steps I took that resulted in the problem:
When changing the parameters of a part with the mouse wheel, the part is cloned.
If you change the parameters with the left mouse button, this does not happen.
What I expected should have happened instead:
…
My version of Fritzing and my operating system:
Fritzing 0.9.8, Windows 10
…
Link to Google Disc with the video file of the problem, perhaps this will make it clearer.

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Place a part (e.g., a transistor)
2. Move your mouse cursor over a property that uses the swap mechanism (e.g. 'package').
3. Use the mousewheel, scrolling up and down fast. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? The part gets copied multiple times (on top of one another). It seems like the swapping mechanism isn't catching up.
This is nasty if you're doing that in a breadboard and not noticing the copy. It will be quite confusing.

The current work around is to not use the mouse wheel to change parameters.
