I'd assumed that something like x(-30:30)(0:0) would not allow any movement, as you suggest. But it is still movable as if I'd use plain x (without quanta). When I use something like x(-30:30)(-1:1), it jumps between -30 and 30. > Then use the same field variable for your [drawnumber]. Unfortunately, when using quanta, the variable doesn't return the input (my mouse movement), but the result. So the number jumps between -30 and 30 as well.
