XAML Object Element Usage
<Slider .../>

A Slider control lets users select a value from a range of values.

You can customize a Slider control by setting its properties. The following list describes some of the attributes of a Slider that you can customize:

  • The orientation of the Slider, either horizontal or vertical.

  • The direction of increasing value along the Slider.

For more information about how to customize a Slider control, see the individual member.

Note:

If the value of the Slider is animated, the user may no longer be able to interact with the Slider control after the animation finishes.

For a list of the initial property values for an instance of the Slider class, see the Slider()()() constructor.

The following code example shows how to use a slider control in XAML.

XAML
<Slider Margin="0,5,0,20"
    x:Name="slider1" 
    Minimum="0" 
    Maximum="10" />
XAML
<Slider Margin="0,5,0,20"
    x:Name="slider1" 
    Minimum="0" 
    Maximum="10" />

Run this sample.
