I like the floating action box; it’s highly convenient. However, one of the things I don’t like about it is the fact that once you have depressed the mouse button, the box will move with the mouse, no matter where you have clicked – including links. This makes it impossible to move the mouse cursor off the link, thereby canceling the click. Sometimes I click on a link before I actually read the screen, and I change my mind about what action I want to take. Usually (on any page on the web I’ve ever visited) I can just move the cursor off the link, take my finger off the button, and nothing happens. I don’t follow the link, I don’t go anywhere. Can you change the way the floating action box works so that you have to click on the title bar of the box to move it? I like being able to change my mind about what action to take.

The intended behavior (and I’m pretty sure it used to work this way) is that the box can only be moved by dragging it by the title bar. Seems to be off now – I’ll look into it.

How about an option in our profile to turn off all floating action boxes that cover the gameplay screen with duplicate buttons 2 inches from the other?
