> Are useful those sliders?
Sliders are good to quickly set a value on a percentual basis, meaning the
exact number is not important. The slider/spinner combination as implemented
provides the best of both world.
About consistency: bug 59570 points to a wrong implementation of this concept.

Dialogs have a fix size. The discussion was on the mailing list
(http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/msg07373.html), see also bug
96999 or bug 87495.

> Yeah.. maybe a combo box would be best here.
The combo box is good for a selection of one out of many items. The radio
button is the preferred control for a single selection with only a few items
and when the options are not clear. I would keep it as it is.
Two points: The slider no not respect the theme or are not implemented as
standard controls. And the numeric input is overlong, better place it right of
the slider with a smaller width.
