Slider (computing)
A slider or track bar is a graphical control element with which a user may set a value by moving an indicator. In some cases the user may also click on a point on the slider to change the setting. It is different from a scrollbar in that it is not continuous but used to adjust a value without changing the format of the display or the other information on the screen. Its most popular use is for viewing and jumping to a playback position in media player software.
