A slider lets the form filler pick a number on a scale by dragging a handle, e.g. a 0 to 10 rating.

Settings

• Minimum Value, Maximum Value and Step are required. The step can be less than 1, e.g. Min 0, Max 10, Step 0.5 gives 21 possible values.
• Legend Text shows a caption at each end of the slider. Enter the two captions separated by a semicolon, e.g. Not likely;Very likely.
• Format Hide Labels hides the numeric labels (the value bubble on the handle and the minimum/maximum labels), leaving just the legend.
• Width 12 shows the slider full width below the prompt instead of beside it.

Behaviour

• A slider always has a value. A new form opens with the handle at the minimum, and that value is submitted if the form filler doesn’t move it, so the Required setting has no effect on a slider.
• The value is stored as a number. In documents and tags it is shown with one decimal place when the step is less than 1, otherwise as a whole number.
