iMovie 10.0.7 - Adjust Colours Numerically?

I have a question about iMovie 10.0.7, which is currently the latest version of iMovie.

If you Adjust colours (using the Multislider control, the Saturation slider, or Color Temperature slider) is there a way to bring up numbers, so that you can Adjust the colours numerically? For example, if you increase the Saturation of a clip, is there a way of seeing a value (e.g. +20), so that you know the amount you increased it by?

No. You can of course copy and paste adjustments between clips so you know they have the same settings.

OK, thanks for your reply.

That's a shame though. The new Photos app has numbers/values for all its sliders. So, it seems odd to include them for Photos, but not iMovie, given that they're both consumer-grade applications.

I'm not familiar with the new Photos app (in fact I never used iPhoto). Final Cut Pro 10.1 does have numerical as well as graphical settings (see below). Is this similar to Photos? Since iMovie 10 and FCP X share a lot of code, it is something that might conceivably be added to future update.
