Incrementing/Decrementing Values in Class Editor

Is there any shortcut to increment and decrement values in the class editor? Let’s say I’m adjusting the top margin for instance, as it is now it seems I need to type the value and then keep deleting and retyping values until I get the margin that I want. In a lot of adobe software to adjust values you can use the up/down arrow keys to bring the value +/- 1. Doesn’t seem to be possible in Blocs. This would be such a fantastic feature to have I think if it doesn’t exist already. Please correct me if I simply don’t know the shortcut for this!

Good point, I’ve added it to the development list.

As a long time Adobe user, I miss this too. It would be even better if we could do jumps of tens with Shift and +/–.

Thank you, looking forward to it!

Hey @mathewharwich and @IgorFreiberger I’ve added support for this in Blocs for Mac 6.1 beta build 3.

It’ll be available soon to test. :sunglasses:

wow this is going to be fantastic! A while back I got one of those tourbox’s and I mapped the dials and wheels to a couple of things in Blocs (I’ll have to share this sometime). It’s going to be most excellent to be able to use those dials now to adjust values. Can’t wait, looking forward!
