Make a slider in float type with a particular step value

[heaynking]

I'm trying to make a slider in float type with a particular step value. How to make it?

I think it will be easier to use if there's a "step" property:

pressure = 0.05
with tgb.Page() as page:
    tgb.slider("{pressure}", min=0.01, max=0.1, step=0.01)

[FlorianJacta]

You can code this, for example as a way to mimic what you want to do:

import taipy.gui.builder as tgb
from taipy.gui import Gui 

# create a list of string 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, ...
string_list = [str(i / 10) for i in range(1, 11)]

pressure = string_list[0]
with tgb.Page() as page:
    tgb.text("Slider:")
    tgb.slider("{pressure}", lov=string_list)

Gui(page).run()

We could add what you said with step directly to Taipy to make it easier. Let's discuss about it.

I agree with this issue. We should align with the Python standards. For example, in NumPy, np.arange uses min, max and step with step defaulting to 1. This allows you to easily do both integer and float sliders

Thank you for your response. I look forward to it being added!

Thanks, @FlorianJacta . I need help with this PR, it would be nice if you could guide me. I made a draft pull request already. #800

I updated Slidebar.tsx to take step argument but it seems not working according to the test I wrote. I also struggled to set up formatted for this project.

I commented your PR

There is an issue with step function when used with markdown. see code below <|{vari}|slider|min=0|max=200|step=1|change_delay=2000|orientation=vert|on_change=sliderchange|> the code throws error and does not recognize step. when removed from code the slider functions normally.

This feature appeared in 3.1. What Taipy version so you have?

I wasn't able to replicate the issue on 3.1.

Hi, My version is 3.1.1

See the screenshot below

The above slider code runs even with this error shown in VSCode but step functionality does not work for slider.
