Slider Source: The data for the slider comes from the values that you set for the ‘Range’ (maximum, minimum and increment). The steps are generated based on the range that you configure for the slider.

Alternatively, you can associate a selection cycle as the source of data. If the selection cycle has two or more columns, the first column is used to return the value to the data source and the second column is used for the tick marks; any extra columns in this case are ignored. However, if there is only one column in the selection cycle, the same column handles the data source and tick marks.

Increment and Page Increment Properties

• Increment determines the size or amount of each interval or step the slider takes between two adjacent values when you use the mouse or arrow keys.

• Page Increment determines the size or amount of each interval or step the slider takes between two adjacent values while using the Page Up and Page Down keys.

1. Double-click the slider object.
   The Slider properties window appears.

2. Click Events tab.

3. Select either option:

   1. To provide a range of predefined values, on the Slider Source list, click Range.

      1. Under the Range group, enter the value or select a numeric variable that appears as a minimum value on the slider.

      2.   Enter the value or select a numeric variable that appears as a maximum value on the slider.

         Note: For ‘Range’, numbers should be integers; else they are rounded at runtime. It does not support decimal values.

   2. To associate a selection cycle, on the Slider Source list, click Cycle.

      1. Under Associated Selection Cycle group, enter or select the selection cycle.
         

         Note: For ‘Cycle’, you can associate the selection cycle if you want to return decimal values. At runtime, the data from the selection cycle is loaded into the slider and you can select the value from the predefined set of values.

4. Under Increments group, configure the values:

   1. Increment: Enter the value or select a numeric variable.

   2. Page Increment: Enter the value to state the number of values to skip when you use the Page Up and Page Down keys on the slider.

5. Click OK.
