Is there a command key sequence to access Magic Wand "Tolerance" field?
It's a major PITA umpteen times a day to move the pointer to click in that tiny text field. I sure could use a keystroke to quickly put me there, or some other way to rapidly & frequently change the Tolerance.

hoover the mouse over the text ; Tolerance
it will change the cursor
drag the mouse left<->right on the text Tolerance to change value

this works also on other tools that use this "tiny text field" .

^ Oh yeah, thanks, but I knew that, and if you think about it, it's just as excruciating to have to navigate the pointer to get there as it is to click in the text field. The mouse is great, but there are times when it gets in the way.... Anyway, I found it: when you're in the Magic Wand mode (or any other tool that has text entry parameters in the Option Bar), hitting the Return or Enter key puts you in the first text field in the Options Bar. You enter your number and hit Return or Enter again to get back into Magic Wand (or just directly click your next selection location in the image.)
