Yes! This is the biggest irritation with the new system. The amount of
concentration and precision needed in just grabbing a staff can be very
frustrating. It would be better if the system was tweaked just a bit to
allow a bigger area for us to click-and-drag so that it is not so easy to
move ALL systems on all pages. You really need to make sure you click on
the handle and do not accidentally click it twice because you will easily
move the systems on all pages. This was the first thing that was hard to
get used to for me especially since I usually work while viewing a single
page at a time. It would be great if we had a different highlight color so
we would know which part of the staff tool's staff moving function was ON.

Cheers,
Steve
