Hi all!

I have a big aversion to sliders. Trying to get an exact dim level with a touch screen slider (on the phone or the track pad using my MacBook) is frustrating!

One could argue that 21 % or 19 % doesn’t really matter…but I like my things neat, so if I want to set the level to 20 % I will struggle until I get it there.

I wish Homey could give me the option to click on a text field and set my dim level with numbers that control the slider.

Cheers  
Fred
