Reply To: Relative snap?

Just a quick halfdone mockup to illustrate my idea:

The small outer circles would contain an icon that illustrates the action. Upper half, left to right, would be: Resize start, fade-in, gain, fade-out, resize end. Moving the mouse over the small circles will show detailed info text in the center circle.

So, it can be used both as a quick way to get info about the properties of the event, as well as an easy access to drag adjusting the properties. It can be useful when the normal drag handles on the event are hard to access, such as when zoomed far out, as in the screenshot, and when zoomed far in so that the handles on the event may be outside the display range.
