As an example, let’s consider the use of a dynamic spacer when aligning columns:
You typically start by dragging the block with your mouse or trackpad.
As you approach alignment, you usually need a precise adjustment (within 1-2 px). At this point, using the "+" or "-" button is ideal for fine-tuning.
So, I suggest two options:
– Good option: Change the control of this specific dynamic spacer to adjust by 1 px. You can first make a rough adjustment manually, then switch to the buttons for more accuracy.
– ⭐️ Ideal option: Enhance padding controls across the platform (any size controls where you have + and - buttons) by offering two adjustment methods:
– Clicking the "+" or "-" button changes the value by 1 px.
– Holding Cmd/Ctrl and clicking the button changes the value by 5 px.
This approach is consistent with many design tools like Adobe’s apps, Figma, Webflow, etc.
