Caligraphy brush width 'out of control'

[Dave Pawson]

I want to set the caligraphy brush, ideally using keyboard (enter number) or up/down clicker.
The silly(IMHO) up arrow / slider keeps appearing and simply doesn't stop till it gets to 100,
hence 'out of control'.

I have to select another tool, re-select the caligraphy brush then try again.

Annoying, but workable.

feature request please. Changing the brush, I have no way of knowing the brush setting when I select
a line drawn with the brush. Could this be reported in the 'properties' please? Pretty please.

Thanks for a great tool.

Looks like Bug #1164150 "Blocking when double clicking on the spinner widget"
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1164150>

Could you please confirm it also affects other widgets?

>feature request please.

Please don't use the same report for two different bugs or requests. If you can confirm your bug is a duplicate of Bug #1164150, I suggest we change the report's title to turn it to a request. If not, please create a different report.
Thanks!

AFAIK I didn't double click.
 I may have done inadvertently, but I will check and let you know.
regards
