That part is, to me, a UI disaster. What you can do though is click and drag upwards, even out of the knob, and it will work (barely, because it's incredibly not sensitive)
Yes. Those stupid knobs confused me terribly. I kept trying to move the mouse cursor as if it were my finger, using it to rotate that little notch on the knob. Because, like, it's a knob... right? I mean, I've used knobs before. That's how they work. And this is a knob. I know that, because it looks like one. EVEN THE STUPID BAR GOES ROUND THE KNOB. It's telling you to rotate it. And then you rotate it, and it doesn't work.
What, you don't usually tie a string around your knobs and pull up or down, depending on how you want it to turn?
Seriously, though, once I figured out how they work (it took a few seconds), it was just fine. I don't know what all the furore is about, it's at most a minor inconvenience.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll look into an alternative control that's more intuitive. This kind of knob control is common in a lot of audio applications and is really quite nice to use once you're used to it, but I want geometee to be a fun discovery for people, and this sounds like it caused you (and others) some confusion and frustration.
