The fast moving (up-arrow) slider appears when you have your mouse in the top half of the slider area. The slow moving (horizontal arrows) appear when you are in the lower half of the area. It is new behavior to learn, but it will become second nature eventually.On freebsd, I get both arrows as described, but *both* of them do the fine- grained increments. Is there a setting that controls this, or is this a bug?
To be clear, see the enclosed image. The slider with the word Threshold on it is an example. Hovering the mouse pointer in the upper half, e.g. over the word Threshold, changes the mouse pointer to an upwards pointing arrow; clicking in the bar when the mouse pointer displays the upwards arrow will set the amount directly: clicking on the left of the top-half of the bar will set Threshold to 0, clicking on the right (over the 81.5 in this example) sets it to around the maximum of 255, clicking in the middle (e.g.just under the "g" of "sample merged") sets it to about half, or 127. Dragging in this mode will drag the edge of the shaded bar directly. When the mouse pointer is in the lower half of the bar, e.g. in the shaded area under the word Threshold, the mouse pointer is shown with a cursor made of a horizontal arrow pointing both left and right. In this mode, dragging in the bottom half of the area will select the number (81.5 in the image I attached to this message) and the number will change as you drag. In addition, there are two small arrows to the right of the number, and clicking on those will increase or reduce the number shown. But those are not the arrows being discussed in this thread :-) I hope this helps.
