I'm glad you like it! You can already give focus to the slider by clicking on it or repeatedly hitting the tab key. Then once it's focused, you can manipulate it using the arrow keys. it's true that you can't scroll over it to change the value. Most sliders implement this behavior so we should fix it here for consistency's sake (even though I don't like this behavior or think it's a good idea most of the time). Looking deeper, it seems like this is a problem for all QQC2 sliders, not just the one in this KCM. Moving the bug appropriately.

Moving the bug appropriately. Yeah, I know that tabbing or clicking would do the job, but I wondered whether it could be done with little or no effort immediately, right away - it matters when changing values constantly, or you may consider providing an option to add more time intervals for particular hours of the day/night - for example I would like to get a more red picture at midnight, not the same value as early evening ... May be it will be good to have somewhere a global option to select whether or not scrolling on sliders be allowed ...

I would be very strongly in favor or that. Step one is to make everything consistent of course. :) A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/qqc2-desktop-style/-/merge_requests/99 A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/qqc2-desktop-style/-/merge_requests/116 Git commit a673947eff52283a691c4a1c42a2a5fc10577aa3 by Nate Graham. Committed on 07/01/2022 at 02:04. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Slider: handle scrolling The Plasma and QtWidgets sliders do this too; qqc2-desktop-style Sliders should do the same for consistency, especially now that there's no longer a conflict between scrollable controls and any scrollable view they may live on. Implementation is more or less copied from ComboBox.qml.
