  • Hold Shift on the Size/Position/Origin or UV arrows to increase its value only by 0.1 or Ctrl for 0.5 instead of 1.
  • Hold Ctrl on the Position arrows to not move the origin point.
  • In the Size/Position/Origin Text fields, use the mouse wheel to modify the value increments by 1.
    • Hold down Shift to do increments of 0.1.
    • Or hold Ctrl on the position fields to also move the origin.
