Spinners
Spinners are the numeric fields with arrows at each end:
. You can drag right/upwards and left/downwards from within the spinner to rapidly adjust the value, or click the respective arrow < or > to change a little at a time.
If you click on the number displayed in a spinner, you can type in a new value. As you enter a new value for a spinner, the keystrokes do not take effect immediately, as that tends to make things fly around inconveniently. When you have finished entering a value, hit the enter key. This will enter the value into SynthEyes.
Tip: You can enter a simple expression into a spinner, such as 16/9 to set an aspect ratio exactly, or @*2 to multiply the value by two. Standard operator precedence rules apply; you can also use parentheses. It supports +, -, *, /, and ^ (exponentiation); @ indicates the existing value.
Spinners show keyed frames with a red underline. You can remove a key or reset a spinner to a default or initial value by right-clicking it. If you shift-right-click a key, all following keys are truncated. If you control-right-click a key, all keys are removed from the track.
