Help using the line width palette

FrameMaker 2019. The line width palette is hard to use. A slider is not ideal for setting a line width. I like the old way (presets of .5, 1, 2, 3 pts or so) better. Any suggestions, keyboard shortcuts or instructions? I frequently change line widths while creating callouts and simple shapes in FrameMaker.

Hi David:

I'm with you—I preferred the old interface with the four presets. Now I either click Custom or just go to Graphics > Object Properties > Stroke and set the line width there.

If you want to put in a request to restore the old presets, I'll vote for it.
