Manual Focus increment in Live view (for Sony cameras)

What problem do you see this solving?

When tethering my Sony A7RIV with C1 the manual focus increments in the Live View window are greyed out. The AF works fine but not the manual increments. I attach a screenshot to clarify which buttons I'm referring to(the arrows)https://support.captureone.com/hc/user_images/T8RL1vjRmGlwqPvi_Jxe0g.png

I have tried different settings on the camera, by switching manual focus on the body and AF on the lease and vice versa...all possible combinations but nothing! It doesn't work when pressing on the arrows, only the AF buttons work, but when I need the manual increments for focus stacking, the AF is pretty much useless.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

can't focus stack

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

nope

    It may be worth a feature request to Sony themselves to open up the capability to 3rd party applications (like Capture One).

    We definitely need this functionality with SONY. As a product photographer, I can't use a Sony camera on my professional workflow without it!

    No Sony product has this ability as they havent allowed CaptureOne to use it, they want people using the Sony software.. very annoying!

    Sony users need this functionality. If not having it, it almost makes no sense using Capture One :)
