@baconpaul ... a simple, maybe less code expensive, would be using e.g. <shift> when moving the knob which will move in integer increments, and appropriately for ratios < 1. Akin to using <ctrl> and knob to do finer movements as many synths do for parameter input.
So with <shift>-knob we can only access 1->32 and also 1/2 -> 1/32. Then we can fine tune from the set point thereafter. Basically a simple clamp.
But yes, I understand why fully this is a discussion topic in Surge-land, ease of use and good control of parameter setting is vital (no pun intended!). Get it right, users will thank you. Get it wrong and they moan!
Thanks again for being responsive.
