So for some reason on my Linux desktop (Fedora 44 KDE), whenever I drag any control in the (such as dials or sliders), it is way too sensitive (at least for me). I use version 2.03.14 (Build #164239) (AppImage edition) of Studio and Integration.  
I don’t see a way to reduce the sensitivity anywhere when dragging controls anywhere.  
This is really annoying for me because I’m having a hard time getting the value I want.

Thanks for your bug report!

There appears to be an issue on Linux with the “Relative” mouse input mode setting in Preferences → Interface. If you’re using the “Relative” mode, try swapping to “Absolute” and seeing whether that resolves the issue. I’ve passed this issue along to the developers to take a closer look at.
