I ran some automated tests. Ideally, the slider would also support mutating its value and the raised events had bubbles:true set for compatability with native components
Hi Tom, thank you for running the tests! It took me a while to come back to this notebook (😂), but I added bubbles: true for the "input" event emitted by the div element. When it comes to mutating the value of the slider, this is currently possible by using the update method exposed by the div.
Yes, not directly in the slider function, but you could modify its appearance by writing some custom CSS targeting the thumb e.g. .input-default input[type = 'range']::-webkit-slider-thumb (if you use the default theme).
It would be really cool to have a slider whose bar starts in the middle. I need a slider to control rotation: left=counterclockwise, middle=stop, right=clockwise. You could generalize this to have the colored bar start anywhere, not just the dead center.
Hi Lao, this kind of appearance is somehow already possible with the help of the *highlight* property, as in the Highlighted Slider. I guess the API could be easier to just start the bar anywhere, I will consider introducing changes related to that.
