Pro-Q4 low/high shelf slope - not a dropdown anymore

Could we please get back the click=dropdown behavior of low/high shelf slope setting in Q4, as it is in Q3?

I know I can scroll with mouse wheel and/or click and drag mouse up/down to change the slope, but I guess the muscle memory is winning here.

Hi Premysl,

For the main slope button in the band controls, we changed the menu to a more elaborate version that allows you to quickly select the common slope values, but also drag the slider to intermediate values to use fractional slopes.

However, for the EQ parameter value display we found it too cumbersome to use this menu, since it is difficult to fit into the display if you're using a smaller interface size. With the system menu in Pro-Q 3, this is not a problem since it shows up on top of the entire interface and can extend outside it.

So our solution was to just use a button that lets you click and drag instead -- it does take a little adjustment but hopefully you can get used to this new behavior.

Cheers,

Frederik (FabFilter)
