Adjust on the fly (Not just for Photoshop)

*UPDATE* - I hear you guys! I wish Adobe included this feature in every program they make, but unfortunately, they don't; however, they DO include it in After Effects, Lightroom, Premiere Pro and Soundbooth (all CS3 versions). So, if you use any of these programs, make sure you take advantage of this great feature.
-----------------------------------------------

Have you ever wanted to make adjustments on the fly? There are several ways to resize things such as indents for paragraphs, but here's one you may not be aware of. If you place your cursor right next to the box where you would normally enter a value, you will get a finger with a left/right pointing arrow, clicking on it and dragging left or right will increase/decrease the value. It works just about anywhere you would enter a value. Try it out!

Why do they only put this feature into Photoshop, I find it such a pain switching through InDesign, Illustrator & Photoshop and having to change the way I enter values.
Why Adobe, why????
