Hello!

Over the last few years I have taught myself to use the settings panel for Top/Bottom, Size of objects when designing which helped me a ton.
Unfortunately the Scroll wheel has soo many massive jumps, most of the time it is not as useful to continuously size or place objects.
The Shift-key however makes these increments much smaller, but as in many cases you find that the scale between the Shift and non-shift
causes two objects of the same type and size to not be adjustable to the value (example. One is stopped at Top 203, which the other jumps to either 205 or 207 when you do Shift-Scroll).
At this point you just end up having to click and type the direct value into the field anyways.

Even so I wish there was a more fine/accurate fader increment/decrements when using the scroll wheel as I always end up having values I jump over..and have difficulties reaching.
I don't think there is currently any method...but

Would it be possible to make a 1:1 wheel-click to increment/decrements (integer, or user specified adjustment like in button inc/dec) hotkey that could be used in conjunction with the mouse-wheel? Even if a detente click is not available, could it not be Counter based and change-delayed increment/decrements similar to encoder style changes?
This would be soo much more efficient, it already is quite easy to at least get things targeted, but with the new arrow-adjustment and a scroll adjustment...the design layout would be much easier to quickly and accurately layout.

in the v146, shift increases/decreases integer values one by one ! so ?
but you need a good mouse !
also you can use the arrow keys to move the controls.

Okay I didn't know this was implemented, so dependent on the mouse wheel itself then, and will do inc/dec of 1? If so that's awesome senso. ..I'm buying a new mouse today then! :D I am totally in love with the arrow capabilities...positioning...yes is perfect to navigate now....it hit me when I was resizing a bunch of objects and ended up with difficulty. I will try as suggested...but great to know...super excited for these!

I believe this is what you described but...does the shift feature apply to both fader movements and the scroll wheel?
