Using pop-up sliders


    A number of palettes and dialog boxes contain settings that use pop-up sliders (for example, the Opacity option in the Layers palette).

To use a pop-up slider:

    Do one of the following:

    • Position the pointer over the triangle next to the setting, hold down the mouse, and drag the slider or angle radius to the desired value.
    • Click the triangle next to the setting to open the pop-up slider box, and drag the slider or angle radius to the desired value. Click outside the slider box or press Enter or Return to close the slider box. To cancel changes, press the Escape key (Esc).

    TipTo increase or decrease values in 10% increments when the pop-up slider box is open, hold down Shift and press the Up or Down arrow key.
