Names of Planets, pos mods. can and other clutter shouldn't interfere with me clicking on the arrow to move things. I have no idea why the hell this hasent been patched yet.

Example:

EVEN BETTER YET (as far as pos mods go)

Just simply allow us to use the numpad to move mods. Even if you have to make 1 and 7 or 3 and 9 up and down and 8 6 4 2 the x axis.

It can sure be hard to move anchoring objects when there's more of them around. When I do in a situation like this is "Look at" one of the modules very close to where I want to anchor the second one, this gives you a much better prospective of what's going on, and makes the arrows and box much bigger. (since you're closer to them..)

I do the same. It is pretty much the only way of keeping sane when anchoring POS modules.

This and the issue with planets and god-knows-what popping up when positioning your probes are annoying as hell.
