BUT, all these require moving from the mouse to keyboard and back, which I desire limiting. Switching hands, mouse, keyboard, looking to place mouse pointer onto slider, ..., all detract attention from the photograph. At present, I can tilt the image by .25 degree in either rotation, open the crop on the photograph, change/apply crop on photo, move to next/previous photo, change crop from landscape/portrait, zoom current view, move view from lighttable-darktable, make all module adjustments, ..., all w/o taking my right hand from the mouse and left from keyboard. I wish remove the coarse adjustment restraint by providing a micro adjustment mode w/o having to move from or to mouse or keyboard. tks -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
