When there is a red warning flag or other error notice, it would be quite convenient to be able to click on it and have the feed speed or whatever automatically slide to a level that prevents the error.

Actually by the time you see a warning everything has already been corrected!
Let me demonstrate:
picture1: Everything normal.
picture2: we increase cutter sickout thus triggering deflection warning.
As you see from the second screenshot, HSMAdvisor automatically reduces the feedrate and it Tells you it did it.
Now someone before wanted to be able to choose which parameter get corrected. I tried, But it did not work out.
So when something alarms out, feedrate gets reduced right away.
The cutting performance will NOT be optimal, but at least you will not likely damage anything.
User is given option to correct things manually.
Like in this case simply reducing depth of cut will fix the problem.
Edit: i just realized that you wanted the S&F sliders to adjust to below red level!
I do not think it is a good idea.
When something gets limited by a warning and it is red, it means you should correct the condition (like reducing DOC), not try to make it look pretty!
I will note that and add try to see if there is a place for that however.

Your change is ideal, if the adjustment is going to be automatic it needs to be according to best practice. Thanks!
