Increase/decrease stroke width by using a shortcut/scroll


Recommended Posts

It would be great to be able to assign hotkeys to increase/decrease stroke width. This would make it possible, for example, to cast these functions on the mouse wheel when the modifier is pressed. What it might look like in theory:
ctrl+scroll → +1/-1 increment,
ctrl+alt+scroll → +0.1/-0.1 increment,
ctrl+shift+scroll → +2/-2 increment.

Try mouse scroll (without + with Shift or Ctrl) over Width edit field.

P.S. for me Ctrl+Scroll on the worskpace = increase/decrease Zoom.

That was just an example. If there is an option to assign a shortcut, then everyone can bind it wherever they want. 

Thanks for the tip about scrolling over the Width edit field, but of course I know how it works: that's how this screencast was recorded in Illustrator (Illustrator, when selecting the Width edit field, allows you to scroll wherever the cursor is). However, I'm talking about the possibility of not having to scroll to this field, but to change the line width at once, no matter where the cursor is.
