I have a request that we change the input method of the extraction area size from the slider bar option, to a manual number input.

Obvious reasons, it is simpler to pinpoint that 24/hr period vs a slider that can't ever hit it directly.

Thank you.

I don't see manual numbers being better unless you call doing calculations easier compared to sliding a bar and see what the timer is.

It's a hell of a lot easier to press 1 than it is to try and get the slider close enough to 1 day to allow you to use the + - buttons to get to where you want to be.
