fast-slider

An implementation of a range slider as a form-connected web-component. Note that if the slider is in vertical orientation by default the component will get a height using the css var --fast-slider-height, by default that equates to (10px * var(--thumb-size)) or 160px. Inline styles will override that height.

Setup

Basic Setup

import {
    provideFASTDesignSystem,
    fastSlider,
    fastSliderLabel
} from "@microsoft/fast-components";

provideFASTDesignSystem()
    .register(
        fastSlider(),
        fastSliderLabel()
    );

Customizing the Thumb

import {
    provideFASTDesignSystem,
    fastSlider,
    fastSliderLabel
} from "@microsoft/fast-components";

provideFASTDesignSystem()
    .register(
        fastSlider({
            thumb: `...your thumb...`
        }),
        fastSliderLabel()
    );
