Knob Jumps Upon Clicking ? ( v annoying )

Post by jjmacrae »

I've noticed that if the tune knob is at say -6 & I want to move it slowly through to what ever, when I click & hold on the knob to move it, it jumps to some random setting say +12 or -8. . This is most annoying . . Can it not be solved ? . . Please.

Knob Movements

If you would like to move the knob slowly, place the cursor over the knob, click the mouse button, and while keeping the mouse button clicked, move the cursor a few inches away from the knob. You will find that the knob is easier to fine tune on this arc.

Think of starting in the middle of a clock, then moving the cursor to where the numbers are. Following the path of the numbers will allow "slower" movements of the knob.

Hi Teri. .
This is the problem. . As soon as I click, the knob jumps. . ?

I would start with the cursor over the knob. Then left-click and hold. Navigate away from the knob (approximately 3 inches). Then, move the cursor in a clockwise/counterclockwise fashion. You should be able to fine control the value of the knob.
