We have updated the documentation here regarding Converging Drawings:
Chart Drawing Tools: Converging Drawings

PROBLEM 1 - Sometimes when I select one individual chart drawing or line, Multiple numbers appear on each drawing and can't be got rid of unless I select Hand Tool Feature (ESC won't work which is the obvious fix/action)

but it would be useful if the ESC key could be used when all numbers appear on the screen to occult them, it's not obvious how to get rid of them.

The Escape key does cancel the identification numbers when there are multiple drawings which have been selected when you left click in an area where there are converging drawings. If this is not working for you describe the steps so we can reproduce.


(1) To select the objects without selecting many
In this particular case, use this method documented here:
Chart Drawing Tools: Move Drawing - Menu and Control Bar Button Method (Menu and Control Bar Button Method)


(2) it's not easy to move objects as they often expand instead of move
Use the method explained above or make sure you left click near the middle of the drawing.
