> Resizing chart in edit mode (+Shift key) (UI: 'Standard Toolbar')



In some cases, when resizing a chart, the chart is 'jumping' vertically when context toolbars appears. In that case, resizing in edit mode is more difficult because it's hard to catch resizing handle ■ (black square).

Suggestion is to enlarge this handles to be equal in size to a white-square-handles ☐ (resizing in 'non-edit-mode').

It's a little more difficult to catch or point with the mouse the position of the edit-mode-handle.

In this movie, controlling of the size seems to be similarly difficult as in FHD 100%.
