Eric, you need to keep your thumb on the joystick. That way you can move it around easily. You can also lock the joystick so it cannot be moved.
BTW: There is a huge learning with the Fujis - Focus and recompose is a definite No, No.
Always put the focus point on your subject. Never focus and recompose.
Regarding AF modes, you need to optimise the settings as the default ones are less than good.
Also you cant treat a Fuji like a Nikon and expect to get the same thing.
The Fuji has characteristics that seem to perform like a Nikon but when you use them like a Nikon you come unstuck. It is a Fuji and has its own peculiarities. I think it has taken me 2-3 years to find out these wrinkle and differences.
I clearly have a lot to learn! Breaking 50 years of shooting habits may be an uphill struggle. But having sold all my Nikon gear ( except one lens and a flashgun) I have nothing to distract me.
