    In big assemblies, whenever I make a detail view. I have a heck of a time to
    grab the green dots to resize or move the view. How can this be done?

    Go to menu Tools
    Select Application Options
    In dialog, General tab, increase the Locate Tolerance

    Wouldn't filtering the views as per this FAQ make this easier without
    adjusting the app options that bill suggested?
    http://www.mymcad.com/inventorfaq_answer5206.html

    Adjusting locate tolerance will have other effects that may upset your
    comfort in sketching and regular idw work.

    Or am i missing the question.

    Yes!
    filters work great the trick is to know which filter to use.
