slip editing clips - odd behaviour (with video)

Using X3 - Sorry that my explanation is not using quite the right terminology but hopefully you know what I'm getting at - 
 
I find that when there's a fade-in envelope on an audio clip and I'm trying slip edit to adjust its length, it's the red fade-in line rather than the blue length adjusting line that my cursor grabs 95% of the time.
 
Is there some technique or method to make it easier to grab the length adjust line?

    Thanks, but I'm getting some odd behaviour as you will see on the Youtube video below. When there's only a small fade, I can't grab the left hand side of the clip to adjust the length, only the fade. The right side works okay, but it's only when I increase the size of the fade that the left side will adjust.

    Is this just me, or does this affect others?
