### 17.1 Slider Object

Sliders are useful for letting the user indicate a value between some fixed bounds. Both horizontal and vertical sliders exist. They have a minimum, a maximum and a current value (all floating point values). The user can change the current value by shifting the slider with the mouse. Whenever the value changes, this is reported to the application program.
