Example#

<RangeSlider label="Range" defaultValue={{ start: 12, end: 36 }} />

<RangeSlider
  label="Range"
  defaultValue={{ start: 12, end: 36 }}
/>

<RangeSlider
  label="Range"
  defaultValue={{
    start: 12,
    end: 36
  }}
/>

Value#

RangeSliders are controlled with the value prop and uncontrolled with the defaultValue prop. This value consists of two parts, start and end. Both parts must fall between the RangeSlider's minimum and maximum values, which default to 0 and 100 respectively.

function Example() {
  let [value, setValue] = React.useState({start: 25, end: 75});
  return (
    <Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
      <RangeSlider
        label="Range (uncontrolled)"
        defaultValue={{start: 25, end: 75}} />
      <RangeSlider
        label="Range (controlled)"
        value={value}
        onChange={setValue} />
    </Flex>
  );
}

function Example() {
  let [value, setValue] = React.useState({
    start: 25,
    end: 75
  });
  return (
    <Flex gap="size-150" wrap>
      <RangeSlider
        label="Range (uncontrolled)"
        defaultValue={{ start: 25, end: 75 }}
      />
      <RangeSlider
        label="Range (controlled)"
        value={value}
        onChange={setValue}
      />
    </Flex>
  );
}

function Example() {
  let [value, setValue] =
    React.useState({
      start: 25,
      end: 75
    });
  return (
    <Flex
      gap="size-150"
      wrap
    >
      <RangeSlider
        label="Range (uncontrolled)"
        defaultValue={{
          start: 25,
          end: 75
        }}
      />
      <RangeSlider
        label="Range (controlled)"
        value={value}
        onChange={setValue}
      />
    </Flex>
  );
}

Alternatively, a different scale can be used by setting the minValue and maxValue props.

<RangeSlider
  label="Range"
  minValue={50}
  maxValue={150}
  defaultValue={{start: 75, end: 100}} />

<RangeSlider
  label="Range"
  minValue={50}
  maxValue={150}
  defaultValue={{start: 75, end: 100}} />

<RangeSlider
  label="Range"
  minValue={50}
  maxValue={150}
  defaultValue={{
    start: 75,
    end: 100
  }}
/>

The slider value can be formatted by using the formatOptions prop. formatOptions is compatible with the option parameter of Intl.NumberFormat and is applied based on the current locale.

<RangeSlider
  label="Price range"
  formatOptions={{style: 'currency', currency: 'JPY'}}
  defaultValue={{start: 75, end: 100}} />

<RangeSlider
  label="Price range"
  formatOptions={{style: 'currency', currency: 'JPY'}}
  defaultValue={{start: 75, end: 100}} />

<RangeSlider
  label="Price range"
  formatOptions={{
    style: 'currency',
    currency: 'JPY'
  }}
  defaultValue={{
    start: 75,
    end: 100
  }}
/>

Labeling#

Value labels are shown above the Slider by default, but they can also be moved to the side or hidden as needed. The label text should be in sentence case.

<Flex direction="column" maxWidth="size-5000" gap="size-300">
  <RangeSlider
    label="Jeans price range"
    formatOptions={{ style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }}
    defaultValue={{ start: 75, end: 100 }}
  />
  <RangeSlider
    label="Shoes price range"
    formatOptions={{ style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }}
    labelPosition="side"
    defaultValue={{ start: 50, end: 100 }}
  />
  <RangeSlider
    label="Hats price range"
    formatOptions={{ style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }}
    showValueLabel={false}
    defaultValue={{ start: 15, end: 30 }}
  />
</Flex>

<Flex
  direction="column"
  maxWidth="size-5000"
  gap="size-300"
>
  <RangeSlider
    label="Jeans price range"
    formatOptions={{ style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }}
    defaultValue={{ start: 75, end: 100 }}
  />
  <RangeSlider
    label="Shoes price range"
    formatOptions={{ style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }}
    labelPosition="side"
    defaultValue={{ start: 50, end: 100 }}
  />
  <RangeSlider
    label="Hats price range"
    formatOptions={{ style: 'currency', currency: 'USD' }}
    showValueLabel={false}
    defaultValue={{ start: 15, end: 30 }}
  />
</Flex>

<Flex
  direction="column"
  maxWidth="size-5000"
  gap="size-300"
>
  <RangeSlider
    label="Jeans price range"
    formatOptions={{
      style:
        'currency',
      currency: 'USD'
    }}
    defaultValue={{
      start: 75,
      end: 100
    }}
  />
  <RangeSlider
    label="Shoes price range"
    formatOptions={{
      style:
        'currency',
      currency: 'USD'
    }}
    labelPosition="side"
    defaultValue={{
      start: 50,
      end: 100
    }}
  />
  <RangeSlider
    label="Hats price range"
    formatOptions={{
      style:
        'currency',
      currency: 'USD'
    }}
    showValueLabel={false}
    defaultValue={{
      start: 15,
      end: 30
    }}
  />
</Flex>

By default, the value label is formatted as a plain number. This can be customized using the following props.

showValueLabel: Allows you to display or hide the value label.
formatOptions: Allows you to customize the format of the value.
getValueLabel: Allows you to provide a custom function to format the value label.

<Flex direction="column" maxWidth="size-3000" gap="size-300">
  <RangeSlider
    label="Level range"
    showValueLabel={false}
    defaultValue={{start: 75, end: 100}} />

  <RangeSlider
    label="Cacao percentage"
    maxValue={1}
    step={0.001}
    formatOptions={{style: 'percent', minimumFractionDigits: 1}}
    defaultValue={{start: .75, end: 1}} />

  <RangeSlider
    label="Search radius"
    maxValue={200}
    getValueLabel={meters => `${meters.start}m to ${meters.end}m away`}
    defaultValue={{start: 15, end: 60}} />
</Flex>

Accessibility#

Depending on the visualization being used (i.e. depending on the showValueLabel prop), a label, aria-label, or aria-labelledby prop is required.

Internationalization#

To internationalize a Slider, a localized string should be passed to the label prop, aria-label prop, or value of the associated aria-labelledby element.

For languages that are read right-to-left (e.g. Hebrew and Arabic), the layout of the slider is automatically flipped. In addition, Slider automatically uses the current locale to format the value label.
