When I adjust the "Straighten" slider with my finger on the trackpad it is difficult to get a precise result. When I remove my finger it is so sensitive that the slider moves. I am hoping there is a keyboard method to move the slider in increments of one without using the trackpad. That would be more precise with me. Thanks a lot.

Windows, Windows 10

I don't seem to have a problem with that on my Air's trackpad, and I can get changes much smaller than 1° with my finger. Have you tried slowing your trackpad down?




In System Settings you can search for "trackpad speed" and adjust the speed down. This allows you to make larger movements of your finger to get finer precision with the pointer.


Of course, if make it too slow, it may drive you crazy.

Thank you Richard. I tried that and it does help a little. But the bigger issue isn't getting things straight, it is when I take my finger of the trackpad the slider moves a little. In Lightroom when you are actively editing an image you can use the arrow keys to increase and decrease the effect in small increments. Apparently Apple doesn't have this feature. I am brand new to the Mac. Is there a way to make this suggestion to the big wigs? Thanks again, Brian
