1. When you adjust production on a planet (manufacturing/research/economy) you have to close the planet and reopen or go forward/back in the planet list to see the amounts (manufacturing/research/economy) that will be produced shown, or to see the turn count for the building to be built.
2. When you adjust social vs military production, you have to do it without seeing how many turns your ship will take to build at that level. This results in need to flip back and forth if you want to micro production as in the first few turns.
