I am not sure if this is a minor bug or it is my usage of the feature. I was adding a slow up and down on a mix and when I save it and exit I lose 0.1 from the setting i.e. if I set it at 1.0 it saves as 0.9

That's a classic little bug when using floating point values. I'll check on it.

I just tried to reproduce the problem and I am not able to.. Mike, what are the floating point values? I don't know the term, sorry about my ignorance..

Numbers with a decimal point and digits after it! They can't be accurately represented in binary.
If you set a slow value of 1.0 by clicking on the 'up' button 10 times, it displays as 1.0, but gets saved as 0.9. If you click up to 1.1, then down to 1.0, it gets saved as 1.0. typing 1.0 in also works OK.
I've already edited the source code to fix this, not sure when I will build an executable.

No big one Mike, I thought I might have been doing something wrong. In future I will just type the value instead of clicking the 'up' button to set the value.

Thanks Mike. Now I understand the problem.. Funny that until 0.5 it works as supposed but from 0.6 onwards the problem is there.. After two, at least with the values I selected, It didn't seem to do the problem..
