Studio Spline annoyance

Hello,

I am using NX6 and creating studio splines where I require to place numerous spline points close to one another, but there is something buggin me. It is the G1 label/button that keeps popping up in the area of which I want to place my next point (see image, G1 label/button circled)
How do I get rid of it or get it out the way?

I sometimes have a similar issue when using tools such as Move (dynamic). When I try to pull the arrow heads in dynamic mode I usually get the x,y & z co-ordiante value box appear on top of the arrow I want to grab which means I have to move this little box before I can grab the arrow.

Thanks

I feel your pain. I hope someone has an answer to both of those issues . . .as far as the Move command goes I know the coordinate box can be moved out of the way but it eventually goes right back to where you don't want it.
 
Try pressing the 'F3' key.
