Feature request: Hold shift to finely-adjust volume slider [#16807]

Post by drakinite »

I think the default volume adjustment of 5% each time you scroll the mouse is very good, but it would be nice if there was an option to adjust it more finely. I would love that if I am holding shift, scrolling the volume up and down would go by 1% instead of 5%. This way, if I am keeping my volume very low (between 1% and 10%) it would be much easier to adjust it.

I uploaded many addons to MM's addon page, but not all of those were created by me. "By drakinite, Submitted by drakinite" means I made it on my own time. "By Ventis Media, Inc., Submitted by drakinite" means it may have been made by me or another MediaMonkey developer, so instead of crediting/thanking me, please thank the team. You can still ask me for support on any of our addons.

You can finely control it using the slider itself.

Thanks so much for adding it to the list!
Yeah, I am aware that I can control it with the mouse, but it's a bit difficult to get it Just Right - I think that having the ability to finely adjust with the scroll wheel will make it much better. :D

Good addition, but not easy to discover unless you also updated hover tool tip.

btw there was already facility to adjust volume in 1% increments; click slider, then use left|right arrows.
Want a dark skin for MM5? This is the one that works best for me .. elegant, compact & clear.

Woohoo!

To be honest, I don't think it even needs a tooltip or hint. I think that holding shift to fine-scroll is intuitive enough for someone to discover on their own.
