Feature Request - Up / Down arrow keys increment values in input fields

Beta
#1

Suuuuuuuuper low priority.

I personally would find it pretty handy if the various input fields in the builder responded to Up/Down arrow key presses to increment/decrement values.

For example, I put my cursor in the padding input field here…

And when I press the Up Arrow on the keyboard, it adds 1…

I find this super helpful in apps that support it on macOS (Sketch & other image editors).

Some also support the Shift Key as a modifier, which is extra slick. For example, holding Shift while pressing the Up key increments by 10 instead of 1 (not sure if this modifier is possible in the browser - but I’ve seen other web apps support up/down by 1).

I do this all the time in browser developer tools to tune values. Would be a really nice addition. Not sure when but we’ll definitely find a way to get this in. Another thing in a similar vein that we’ve discussed (would be a bit more complicated) is clicking to drag on inputs without a slider control.

You’re welcome! I’ll post an update here if I get a chance to explore it during the beta cycle.
