Nice to see my design having some impact.
Sad it's not radial, but I hope the soon to be released fan-slider
implementation will change the world anyway :)
From that screenshot I think the negative part of the
scale would
be better of without segmentation, but maybe with some darker color
to give more contrast.
fwiw they reset to default on middle click, reset to
centre on
right-click, increment with any mouse movement up or right and
decrement down or left, and are controllable with the mouse wheel.
Currently mouse movement is too sensitive at small ranges and not
sensitive enough at large ones -- fixes welcome.
I think right click should be reserved for context menus.
For knobs they could contain:
- Set to Minimum
- Set to Maximum
- Center
- Copy
- Paste
Set to center is only interesting for parameters like panning.
I used an arrowhead/triangle above the knob to indicate the nature
of the control and its center value. But it was also meant to be
clickable for centering the value.
