Slider

The Slider is used to allow users to make selections from a range of values.

Sliders reflect a range of values along a bar, from which users may select a single value. They are ideal for adjusting settings such as volume, brightness, or applying image filters.

Import#

Chakra UI export 4 components for Slider:

  • Slider: The wrapper that provides context and functionality for all children.
  • SliderTrack: The empty part of the slider that shows the track.
  • SliderFilledTrack: The filled part of the slider.
  • SliderThumb: The handle that's used to change the slider value.

Customized Sliders#

Slider component was designed to be composed to make it easy for you to customize its styles.

Editable Example

Getting the final value when dragging the slider#

Dragging the slider can trigger lots of updates and the user might only be interested in the final result after sliding is complete. You can use onChangeEnd for this.

Configure thumb focus with focusThumbOnChange#

By default SliderThumb will receive focus whenever value changes. You can opt-out of this behavior by setting the value of focusThumbOnChange to false. This is normally used with a "controlled" slider value.

useSlider#

We've exported the useSlider hook to help users manage and build custom slider UIs.

Slider Props#

The Slider component wraps all its children in the Box component, so you can pass all Box props to change its style.
