Description: 

What I was doing: From the Training Center, I loaded the "Planning a Maneuver" tutorial from the "Orbital Transfers" section. I played through the tutorial until it was time to place a maneuver plan. I placed one in the indicated location, adjusted its prograde handle, then I tried to move the plan as suggested.

What I expected: I would be easily able to highlight the main "yellow circle" of the maneuver plan and drag it around my orbit.

What actually happened: I was unable to consistently move the maneuver plan because the orientation arrows kept being highlighted as the camera shifted and my craft moved around Kerbin. However, when I paused the game I was easily able to highlight the "yellow circle" of the maneuver plan. I suspect this has something to do with how the "interaction zones" are activated as the camera moves around.

Suggested fix: promoting the "yellow circle" of the maneuver plan so that it can always be selected over the orientation arrows, or (better yet) make the orientation arrows unselectable so that only the orientation icons can be dragged.

@Spicat is it possible to change the bug report title from:

"When unpaused it's difficult to select the maneuver plan gizmo highlights correctly because of the arrows (when paused, it highlights correctly)"

to:

"When unpaused it's difficult to select the maneuver plan gizmo because of the arrows (when paused, it highlights correctly)" ?

I think the second title is more concise.
