1.8.0.555 Cog Tool

Just trying the change on number of teeth in the COG tool, slider still limits to 48 but you can make more by entering the amount in the quantity box. Those using the slider may think that 48 is the limit

Agreed. Users may not try to enter a numeric value. The slider needs to be recalibrated.

Maybe it'd be a good idea to add a plus (+) simbol to the right side, to let the user thing he can add more Teeth.

Best regards!

This is by design. The slider range is set to 48 as it allows the slider to be easy to use without it being too finicky for 90% of cases. There is also no upper limit to the amount of teeth that can be applied to the shape so there is no way to give it the correct value.

My personal opinion: I don't like the sliders anyway. Depending on the sensitivity of the input device or moving the slider too fast you are never so precise as typing in values. My first steps with Affinity and the sliders gave me the impression of how unprecise the workflow is. But I found out that there are other ways to get the precision, so everything is fine now and I avoid using the sliders as much as possible.

Given that there is no obvious limit now to the values that can be used I don't see how a recalibration would work. I think Mithferion is on the right track
