Re: Screen design view- how to get the "drag" icon

Hey, pretty cool idea!
Just now "slid up" from 10 to 21 point font . . .
Do not get the improvement I expected.

Here is what I think: the "drag" icon seems to appear
at the point >between< the "blocks" on the top and
bottom of a selected field. There seem always to
be three, and with a one-character field, these "blocks"
are always closely spaced. Sliding to a larger font
also increases the size of the "blocks" used to
"highlight" selected fields . . .

Hi Gary

Maybe try zooming in on the designer - there's a slider on the lower right, I think, that controls that. Then those fields would be bigger - I know that'd help me, too.

I don't have a "steady mouse hand" and have trouble selecting one
character fields so I can move them on the Design screen.

Sometimes it seems the editor is "moody" and hovering like for-ev-er
fails to produce the "move icon".

Not a problem for wider fields.

Is there any way to "force" the cursor to change into the "crossed
arrows" required to move a field?
