Skipped values of RangeWidget
Sometimes the RangeWidget doesn't correctly update the displayed output. I was able to reproduce the behavior with minimal code:
import ipywidgets
ipywidgets.StaticInteract((lambda x: x), x=ipywidgets.RangeWidget(2, 4, 0.2))
Bug description: with the widget above there is no output shown when the slider is set to x=3 or x=4.
This should be something very basic. I know the project is not active for a while, but some pointers to the origin of the error would be greatly appreciated.
Here's a demonstration: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/urls/dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/763585/ipywidgets_bug.ipynb
The bug is present in the current master branch.
This is likely due to floating point representations in Javascript. The best fix is to refactor the code so that the range values are integers.
Do you mind reopening this? It's still a bug even though the origin may be known.
I mainly closed it because I've stopped supporting this package, and I don't anticipate anyone coming along to fix it :smile:
I understand. Just as a quick check: do you use something else nowadays?

I use IPython's built-in HTML widgets. They require a Python kernel so they don't yet allow static output (i.e. nbviewer or HTML-rendered web pages), but that feature is on the roadmap.
