mockup
In DRAW Menu 'File -> Export -> As PNG' you find a horizontal scroll bar what
changes the compression rate in a range 0 ... 9 (left to right)
Although that is an interesting idea and a scroll slider hase some advantage
compared to spin buttons (move fast for big change and then slower for fine
tuning) for me that is a little unintuitive.
a) Numbers become changed up and down, that's the reason why most spin buttons
(and as far as I know all in our UI are top-down. This left right concept is
new and unintuitive. And no idea how that is for RLT countries users.
There should be something like a swelling curve or similar
b) Because that slicer has a very different function compared to a scroll
slider, it should look different from a scroll slider. I owuld prefer some
slide control look.
c) The knob has some strange owns own life. To reproduce,
1. increase width of dialog as you see in attached mockup
2. drag and drop the knob to the very right position
3. drag some mm left until Number changes from 9 to 8
4. release mouse button
> Unexpectedly the slider does a big jump to the left
