Rotary knobs on PMDG 747 is extremely slow

Is there a way to speed them up? I'm talking about the panel lighting knobs. Turning them takes forever.

Double right-click on them and they will turn all the way right. Double left-click on them then they will turn all the way to the left.

I believe this also works on the NGXu and 777.

Aaron, if you have been following the PMDG release notes ever since the QoTS II was first released for FSX, they modelled those panel lighting knobs are per real Boeing 747-400s. Rheostat knobs turn on gradually.

But you can also change how they operate, but again, that requires reading the documentation--specifically, the introduction.

Plus a middle mouse button click puts them at 50%.

You can also use the middle mouse button to rotate them which is faster than just holding a left/right mouse button.
