Problem description
For phetsims/qa#434
When dragging a vector around, it will stick to the graph if you drop it withing bounds and return to the tool box if you drop it out of bounds. However, which happens depends on the mouse or finger position, not on the vector's position. So if you drag near the tail, most of the vector can be out of the graph and still stick (this is expected and works well). However, if you drag closer to the tip, that same vector will not go as far out of the graph before it returns. This is more noticeable with long vectors.
Steps to reproduce
- Go to the second or third screen
- Drag out a vector and put it on the graph
- Grab the vector close to the tail and drag up. Note when it stops sticking to the graph
- Repeat, but this time grab closer to the tip (without changing vector direction)

@KatieWoe thanks for reporting.
This is behaving as specified - whether a vector is on/off the graph depends on pointer position, not vector position. @arouinfar let me know if you want to change the behavior, or close as "won't fix".
