Not to say that I don't like using a handwheel encoder for what you are looking to do but after reading your mouse click comments I wondered if you are aware of the following keyboard shortcuts...
<, > decrement or increment axis speed c/C select continuous jogging i/I select incremental jog, and toggle through increments 1-9,0 set feed override to 10%-90%, 0 is 100% You can set the increments that 'i/I' will toggle through in the ini file.
