<Slider>

A slider object.

Slider is a UI control that will take user input (mouse click + drag) and outputs a value to either a game variable or a script.

A slider is composed by a bar container and a thumb container as pictured below:

The thumb is drawn on top of the bar and its horizontal position is determined by the slider's current value. Objects placed within the Thumb and Bar containers will add to their respective visual representation.
