The Slider component represents a numerical range and a handle (grip). The purpose of the component is to enable visual selection of a value in a continuous numerical range by moving an adjustable handle.
Structure
The most important properties of the Slider are:
min - The minimum value of the slider range.
max - The maximum value of the slider range.
value - The current value of the slider range.
step - Determines the increments in which the slider will move.
showTooltip - Determines if a tooltip should be displayed above the handle.
showTickmarks - Displays a visual divider between the step values.
labelInterval - Labels some or all of the tickmarks with their values.
Usage
The most common use case is to select values on a continuous numerical scale (e.g. temperature, volume, etc. ).
Responsive Behavior
The ui5-slider component adjusts to the size of its parent container by recalculating and resizing the width of the control. You can move the slider handle in several different ways:
Drag and drop the handle to the desired value.
Click/tap on the range bar to move the handle to that location.
CSS Shadow Parts
CSS Shadow Parts allow developers to style elements inside the Shadow DOM. The ui5-slider exposes the following CSS Shadow Parts:
progress-container - Used to style the progress container(the horizontal bar which visually represents the range between the minimum and maximum value) of the ui5-slider.
progress-bar - Used to style the progress bar, which shows the progress of the ui5-slider.
handle - Used to style the handle of the ui5-slider.
Keyboard Handling
Left or Down Arrow - Moves the handle one step to the left, effectively decreasing the component's value by step amount;
Right or Up Arrow - Moves the handle one step to the right, effectively increasing the component's value by step amount;
Left or Down Arrow + Ctrl/Cmd - Moves the handle to the left with step equal to 1/10th of the entire range, effectively decreasing the component's value by 1/10th of the range;
Right or Up Arrow + Ctrl/Cmd - Moves the handle to the right with step equal to 1/10th of the entire range, effectively increasing the component's value by 1/10th of the range;
Plus - Same as Right or Up Arrow;
Minus - Same as Left or Down Arrow;
Home - Moves the handle to the beginning of the range;
End - Moves the handle to the end of the range;
Page Up - Same as Right or Up + Ctrl/Cmd;
Page Down - Same as Left or Down + Ctrl/Cmd;
Escape - Resets the value property after interaction, to the position prior the component's focusing;

Properties/Attributes
You can use both properties and attributes with the same effect. The name of each attribute is listed below the name of the property, if different.
Name
Type
Default Value
Description
value
Float
0
Current value of the slider
accessibleName
accessible-name
string
Defines the accessible ARIA name of the component.
since v1.4.0
disabled
boolean
false
Defines whether the slider is in disabled state.
labelInterval
label-interval
Integer
0
Displays a label with a value on every N-th step.
Note: The step and tickmarks properties must be enabled. Example - if the step value is set to 2 and the label interval is also specified to 2 - then every second tickmark will be labelled, which means every 4th value number.
max
Float
100
Defines the maximum value of the slider.
min
Float
0
Defines the minimum value of the slider.
showTickmarks
show-tickmarks
boolean
false
Enables tickmarks visualization for each step.
Note: The step must be a positive number.
showTooltip
show-tooltip
boolean
false
Enables handle tooltip displaying the current value.
step
Integer
1
Defines the size of the slider's selection intervals (e.g. min = 0, max = 10, step = 5 would result in possible selection of the values 0, 5, 10).
Note: If set to 0 the slider handle movement is disabled. When negative number or value other than a number, the component fallbacks to its default value.
Events
This Web Component fires semantic events upon user interaction. You can bind to these events with the standard DOM APIs, such as addEventListener.
Name
Description
change
Fired when the value changes and the user has finished interacting with the slider.
input
Fired when the value changes due to user interaction that is not yet finished - during mouse/touch dragging.
