Mouse dragging property values

I'd love the ability to adjust the sensitivity of mouse dragging property numbers such as padding, width, etc. It's so sensitive it takes me several seconds some times to get to the exact value. (If I'm trying to set it to 10, I keep getting 8, 11, 9, 7, 15, 12, 9, and finally 10.

If adjusting the sensitivity is out, I'd love it if it just wasn't as sensitive.

My mouse settings are perfect for the way I like to work in Windows, so I don't want to adjust it there.

Note that the only other builder I've used is Thrive Themes (WordPress plugin) and that mouse dragging for value setting was a wonderful experience.

its called scrub
and unfortunately every mouse setting can be different
so probably there is no way around givina setting
how is figma working for you?
I could try and see if we can align with them
you can do it there with alt key
Figma works great for property value dragging.
I'd estimate WS scrubs through 3 to 5 numbers in the same distance that Figma does 1.

I found desktop app and web app to behave the same in this regard.
I see, we should prob align with figma
Figma modifies Scrub sensitivity with Shift (faster). Photoshop does the same, but also allows you to decrease sensitivity (slower) and to snap to even numbers for precision input. You can start dragging normally and at any point start holding down a Modifier key to change the drag-behaviour.
Maybe we could have different behaviors depending on which modifier key is pressed. One for faster, one for slower, and one for locking it into something like even numbers or multiples of 5 or 10.
Cool, first default one should be aligned
BTW, something else that happens to me periodically when dragging a property value is the mouse jumps on to the canvas and starts resizing the responsive window.
