Block Category: Signal Producer
Description: The slider block allows mouse input to dynamically modify a signal value during a simulation, between a lower and upper bound in 1% and 10% increments. The slider block displays the current value applied to the signal. Use the scroll bar to adjust the signal value.
Slider precision is affected by the High Precision Display parameter under Preferences in the dialog box for the Edit > Preferences command. When activated, slider precision is shown at up to 15 significant digits; when de-activated, slider precision is shown at up to 6 significant digits.

If you do not activate the % box, the amount you specify indicates an absolute value. You can also enter a value as a C expression.
Label: Indicates a user-defined block label that appears when View > Block Labels is activated.
