Summary:
Using the +/- buttons in the SceneKit editor is very annoying and tedious, making it necessary to resort to typing in numbers. The values that increment/decrement seem to be arbitrary and unexpected.

Steps to Reproduce:
Add a node to a SceneKit scene and change a value such as x position. (See if you can set the value to 5).
The values you will see after each increment are as follows:

1,2,3,4,14,24,34,134,234,334

If you then choose to decrement, so get back to your original values the sequence becomes:

334,-666,-1666

This is very unhelpful, and seems pretty pointless to use.

Expected Results:
The values should increment/decrement in an expected way, such as 1 point at a time

Actual Results:
The values follow a strange rule that is not expected and makes selecting the correct value harder.

Version:
Xcode 7.3.1 (7D1014) and Xcode 8.0 beta (8S128d)

Configuration:
This occurs in all instances of these buttons in the scene kit editor.
