That was what I was saying.

Yes, after writing all that stuff I noticed from your postings that we were saying pretty much the same things.

Only the knob should look differently, not like something you would have to turn. It could look like a mini slider.

A mini-slider. A semi-slider. A quasi-slider. The margarine of sliders. ;-)

Hmmm... I'm not too sure about that. A mini slider gives the user the impression (before clicking) that he/she's going to handle a tiny control, and all of a sudden it zooms. I think there's nothing bad about things appearing all of a sudden when you click items. The bad thing, in my opinion, is when proportions change. If your intention was to change a parameter by a certain amount, the mini slider allows you to picture into your mind the mouse gesture you need to make. But then the proportions change, and the movement you expected to perform will no longer suffice.

Anyway, it's something worth thinking about...

Alberto.
