I'm using Apple Magic Mouse with "natural scrolling", a.k.a. move content to scrolling direction instead of scroll bars. This probably reverses the intended directionality of input scrolling, but that's all fine by me. I have a question however. If I gesture with the Magic Mouse over an input field, say, character tracking, swiping up decreases, and swiping down increases the value. Great. Now if I want to adjust the value more accurately, I hold shift, right? But now the value only increases when I swipe up OR down, meaning I can't decrease the value with vertical gestures when holding shift! So I figured that with the shift key down I have to swipe left and right instead, that way I can adjust the input accurately to both directions. But if I don't hold shift, swiping horizontally only increases the value. If I try swiping with my trackpad, well, it gets even more confusing, and I don't know how to describe it. Maybe somebody with a trackpad could give it a try?

So what's the intended workflow to adjust input fields using 2d gestures with devices like Magic Mouse or trackpad?
