Question: How to use a fixed Slider increment, in Explore?

I am not able to find an example or how to do this in help.

In Explore, when making a slider, using say 

parameters=[  [ a=1..1000 ], .....]

Is there is a way to tell it to increment "a" by say 10 for each movement of the slider using the mouse? it seems to default in this case to 1 each time.

Actually it is very hard now to make the slider go to the exact value I want. Is there a way to better control what value "a" should be?

In Mathematica, slider supports increment. Also it is possible to open each slider and then click on + and -  in the small window that opens below the slider, where now each click on + now moves the slider by the increment one decides on.  But in Maple I see no place to tell it what increment to use?

If I try this (similar to when using seq command, as in seq(i, i=1..1000,10), it does not work

[ a=1 .. 100, 10 ]

Hoping it will increment/decrement by 10 each time, it gives error.

Imagine a slider that goes from 1 to 10,000. Then how will one control the slider to be say exactly 5,550 ?  It is impossible now. Here is an example

Explore(plot(a*sin(x),x=-3*Pi..3*Pi,'gridlines'),
   parameters=[[a=1 .. 10000]],
   initialvalues=[a=1000],
   width=500,placement='right');

Now try using the slider above to make it go to a=5550. 

very hard to control the slider as it is very sensetive to slider motion, a small touch makes it move by large amount.   

I was hoping that if I can make it move by say 10 at time, so it will be at least easier to control.

Any suggestions?

I see a web page called Slider Component   but have no idea if this is related to Explor or not and how to use it there.

I know I can change the slider to "controller = textarea", and this way I can type in the value I want instead of using a slider. But want to see first if standard slider has a way to allow changing the increment amout. If not, then may be will use textarea instead of slider.
