That's the slider I'm talking about

The current sensitivity slider is very coarse, not very convenient to work with if you need to adjust the touchpad sensitivity to 0.10 units and so on.

I suggest reducing the intervals between the points on the slider to make it easier to adjust such small values. I have recorded what I mean in the video.

Thanks for the bug report!

This is a common pattern we have in many configuration modules: there's a slider that allows you to adjust in large steps, with a spinbox next to it for fine-tuning. As such, the behavior here is intentional and I'm closing it as such.
