I would recommend to use the new interactive transformation handles instead of the spinboxes:

> Any nodes can now be translated, rotated, or scaled by interactive handles. Editing operations can be constrained to specific axes and center of rotation can be freely chosen. The handles are available both in slice and 3D views. Transform nodes can be easily added and visualized for any node in 3D Slicer by right-clicking on the node in the Subject hierarchy visibility column and checking “Interaction”.

You can easily adjust transforms by dragging handles in slice and 3D views. You can effectively adjust the “step size” by zooming in/out in the view.
