Hey @raviteja83,

I believe this was a feature on our list for Slider when we were building it, but we dropped it so we could release a simple version first. I am sure we will get back to that at some point though.

We probably won't do this anytime soon and would rather focus on producing more primitives.
This is also probably possible in user-land.

@benoitgrelard just a heads up that i'm not sure if this is that easy user-land because there are offset calculations on the thumb to stop it from overflowing the edges of the range and consumers don't have access to that offset to align the points.

perhaps css grid could help tho? maybe an example in the docs would help if so.

[benoitgrelard]

That's a great point @jjenzz, this might need to be offered as part of the component for that reason then.

I hope marks will be added soon, I had a hard time making them myself

But no, I was joking, I didn’t manage to do it myself until the end, only if the number of marks is equal to the maximum value

Any updates on that? 👀
