The docs for this is in `:help v_CTRL-A`.

It should actually say VISUAL BLOCK mode. This is where you use `CTRL-v` to select a block of text. You can read more in `:help blockwise-visual`.

Also see the 'nrformats' option: `:help 'nrformats'`. You can include alphabetic characters to do the same thing with A-Z, for example.

It seems to work in both visual block mode and visual line mode for me, for what it's worth. (When not pressing space as mentioned in another reply.)
Huh, learn something new everyday. Thanks!
That was a good point though, I should precise that it works for visual line and visual block :) thanks for that!
