# Slider Widget

*This article walks through how to make use of the custom slider widget.*

## Overview

By downloading the custom slider overview app, you will also receive the slider as a custom widget ![Slider App Screenshot.png](https://cdn.document360.io/7c6ff534-cad3-4fc8-9583-912c4016362f/Images/Documentation/Slider%20App%20Screenshot.png)

The slider widget has the following parameters

- Value - this is the writeable parameter used to store the slider value (as a variable)
- Min - this adjusts the min value for the slider
- Max - this adjusts the max value for the slider
- Step - this  adjusts the step size for the slider
- Font size - this adjusts the font size showing the current slider value (in pt)

## Usage Examples

Using a slider instead of a numeric input could be great for the following applications:

- What-if analysis for a process with several inputs
- Creating a cleaner interface for recipe inputs
- When the app user needs a relative input that does not need to be exact

## Defaults

If no values are set for min, max, step, and font size, the following defaults are used:

- Min: 0
- Max: 100
- Step: 1
- Font Size: 16pt
