• Update the mixing of null values to act as free range zones instead of automatic interpolation zones. This makes for smoother actions between detents. Eg, the following steps value: [0.0, null, 0.5, 0.6, null, 1.0] - will snap to 0.5 and 0.6 but allow free range of motion between 0.0 and 0.5 and 0.6 and 1.0.
