Strip Silence: the sliders move a tenth as far while Ctrl or Command is held - #1056
On main, a drag on a Strip Silence slider always moves the value as far as the pointer, so the threshold moves about 1.1 dB for each point. The reference guide (Pro Tools Reference Guide 2020.12, Chapter 41, page 926, step 4) says of Strip Threshold and Minimum Strip Duration: "For finer resolution on these controls, press Command (Mac) or Control (Windows) while adjusting them." Chapter 3's shortcut table gives the same modifier for "Fine adjustment of sliders, knobs, and breakpoints", which covers Clip Start Pad and Clip End Pad. The guide is at https://web.archive.org/web/20210805202452/https://resources.avid.com/SupportFiles/PT/Pro_Tools_Reference_Guide_2020.12.pdf.
While Ctrl (Command on a Mac) is held, a drag on Threshold, Min Strip Duration, Clip Start Pad or Clip End Pad moves the value a tenth as far, on the slider and on its value box. The new widgets::fine_slider uses the modifier test and the factor of widgets::fader (crates/ui-egui/src/widgets.rs:415-416).
Pressing or releasing the key during a drag leaves the value where it is, and the drag goes on from there, as the clip gain fader does (crates/ui-egui/src/edit_window.rs:2331-2336). Releasing the mouse button leaves the value as well.
Threshold and Clip Start Pad show one decimal place, and a drag on the slider during which the key was held rounds the value to the places its box shows. A drag without the key works as before.
ROADMAP.md gets a progress log line and a revision table row, and its header names this change. docs/ui-parity.md's fine adjust row names the sliders, with a revision row.
The new tests fail on #1055's head (the four plain egui::Slider lines):
strip_silence_sliders_move_a_tenth_as_far_with_ctrl_held: on each of the four sliders, a 30-point Ctrl-drag moves the value 0.08 to 0.12 times as far as a plain one, and the release does not move it.
ctrl_dragging_the_value_box_moves_a_tenth_as_far_too: on the Threshold and Clip Start Pad value boxes, a 20-point Ctrl-drag moves the value 0.07 to 0.13 times as far as a plain one, and the release does not move it.
the_value_box_shows_the_tenths_a_ctrl_drag_reaches: after a Ctrl-drag, the Threshold box shows the value with one decimal place.
pressing_and_releasing_ctrl_during_a_drag_keeps_the_value: pressing and releasing Ctrl mid-drag, and then the button, leave the value where it was.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Strip Silence sliders support fine adjustment: hold Ctrl or Command while dragging a slider or its value box to move values about one tenth as far as with a regular drag.
Fine adjustment is available for threshold, minimum strip duration, and clip start and end padding. Threshold and Clip Start Pad values display one decimal place.
Pressing or releasing Ctrl or Command during a drag does not change the current value or cause it to jump to the pointer.
…is held
While Ctrl (Command on a Mac) is held, a drag on one of the four Strip
Silence sliders moves the value a tenth as far as the same drag
without the key, on the slider and on its value box. Pressing or
releasing the key during a drag leaves the value where it is, and the
drag goes on from there. Releasing the mouse button leaves the value
too. A drag without the key works as before.
The new widgets::fine_slider uses the modifier test and the tenth of
widgets::fader. Threshold and Clip Start Pad show one decimal place,
and a drag on the slider during which the key was held rounds the
value to the places the box shows.

Walkthrough
The Strip Silence dialog now uses fine-adjustment sliders. Ctrl/Command-modified drags move values one tenth as far. Integration tests cover slider and value-box drags, displayed precision, and modifier changes during a drag. The roadmap and UI parity documentation record the update.

Summary
Fine slider adjustment crates/ui-egui/src/widgets.rs
The new fine_slider widget applies Ctrl/Command fine-drag sensitivity, calculates displayed precision, clamps rail-drag updates to the supplied range, and manages drag state when the modifier changes.
Dialog integration and behavior coverage crates/ui-egui/src/dialogs.rs, crates/ui-egui/tests/it/*, ROADMAP.md, docs/ui-parity.md
The dialog uses fine_slider for its four controls. Integration tests cover rail and value-box drags, displayed precision, and modifier changes during a drag. The roadmap and UI parity documentation record the adjustment.

Suggested reviewers:audiosyncrasy
Merge Risk: Minimal · previous review 69d33
The fine-adjustment controls do not introduce an established merge-blocking behavior risk.
Security architecture risk: Low · up to 38694
The change is confined to how four desktop controls interpret dragging. Existing value limits and explicit editing actions remain in place. Some unusual drag-interruption sequences remain unverified, but no introduced security issue was established.
Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The demonstrated production reach is four numeric controls within the existing Strip Silence workflow. Their helper can affect editing parameters, but the inspected integration does not grant additional command authority or expand asset selection.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
inferred — The new input transformation remains before the existing editing-action boundary. The base-to-head comparison preserves dialog field ownership, numeric ranges, button-driven action construction, and command parameters; it does not demonstrate an authorization or persistence-boundary bypass.

Move edit.strip_silence_preview into its own command module.
This change adds a new command to edit.rsspecs(). The repository rule requires a new module with its own specs(), registered by one line in cmd/mod.rs.
Create a module such as cmd/strip_silence.rs. Move strip_silence_preview, strip_silence_scan, StripSettings and strip_settings into it. Keep strip_silence in edit.rs and make strip_settings visible to it. Register the new specs() in cmd/mod.rs. Then change the existing pub use edit::strip_silence_scan; line to re-export from the new module.
As per coding guidelines: "New commands go in a new module with its own specs(), registered by one line in cmd/mod.rs."

Merged main (cf96cb8) in, now that #1055 has landed. ROADMAP.md keeps both sides, and widgets::fine_slider calls Ui::scope_id in place of the Ui::id that egui 0.37 deprecates, as #1063 does elsewhere.

Add coverage for modifier changes during value-box drags.
The value-box re-anchoring fix is not needed. egui::Response::drag_delta() reports movement since the last frame, so DragValue applies the new speed only to later pointer movement. It does not replay the accumulated drag distance.
The current tests do not cover this exact value-box transition. The mid-drag modifier test uses Role::Slider, while the value-box test keeps one modifier state for the full drag. Add a focused Role::SpinButton transition test.

Added pressing_ctrl_during_a_drag_on_the_value_box_keeps_the_value to crates/ui-egui/tests/it/strip_silence_sliders.rs in 3869492: a drag on the Threshold value box that presses Ctrl partway keeps the value where it was, and the rest of the drag moves 0.8 to 1.2 times as far as a drag with Ctrl held from the start. The test fails with the plain egui::Slider in place of fine_slider. No code changed.
