Had the same problem and solved it by turning off the touch screen function, a function I don't like!

I love my Fuji X-T3 except for one minor irritant. Very frequently I will put my face up to the viewfinder and the little square box that shows the focus area will be way off center. I will diligently re-center it but this annoys me. It took me a few days to realize my nose was hitting the toggle switch on the back and displacing the focus square. My nose is "generous" but not Jimmie Durante-size (oops, just dated myself as an old codger). I have learned to live with it but it would be nice if I had a more petite nose or Fuji had not designed it so the nose easily hits the toggle when using the viewfinder. Sigh. Just wondering if I am an outlier - or everyone else has re-programmed the toggle switch to something else or have learned to better control their nose?

Clearly the only solution is o get a nose job.

Correct. I use my right eye and don't get the problem. Just a smudge on the rear screen.

Japanese people have fairly non projecting probosci. Try using your right eye. That way, your nose will not contact the joystick.
