moving things small increments using mouse (AdAn)

in Adobe Animate...it seems im unable to easily move things in small ammounts...i can use the keyboard, but it seems this version of animate has a 'are you sure you want to move that?' feature...where the first few pixels of movement when dragging something are ignored, after that it works fine but this causes me to need to often move something further than i want, then move it back and try to keep it consistant in how an object is moving in the animation...rather annoying...

ive been told animate 2017 and older adobe flash versions dont have this issue, but i was hoping there is some kind of option to disable this feature...

it might also be a case of an object just not moving right away, some kind of lag...but ive also seen this to not be present on older adobe flash/animate versions...what happened?

to be clear this is NOT because of having the 2 snap settings commonly in the top right being on, magnet snapping and all that, see below

i didnt find any other settings that jumped out at me as relating to the issue either, when going through preferences and such...


another question: how do i set default onionskin settings? id prefer having it always use outline by default, but i cant find an option.
