You have to close the tools dialog before you can open a city, just like 
you have to close it before you can select a unit.

This is, obviously, inferior.  The problem is the tools dialog uses the 
main mouse button for painting which obviously has to override some 
important commands.  One fix would be to change the tools dialog to 
paint with a ctrl-click or something...though this has problems of its own.
