Slider ​

A macOS linear slider (NSSlider). The knob is a lozenge, wider than tall; the model is a plain number. Range (multi-thumb) selection is not supported — NSSlider has a single knob.

Usage ​

vue
<script setup lang="ts">
import { MacSlider } from '@macvue/core'
import { ref } from 'vue'

const volume = ref(50)
</script>

<template>
  <MacSlider
    v-model="volume"
    aria-label="Volume"
  />
</template>

Tick marks ​

ticks renders evenly spaced marks under the track. With snapToTicks the step is derived from the tick count: step = (max - min) / (ticks - 1). When the range does not divide evenly, the derived step — and the emitted values — are fractional; no rounding is applied.

Vertical ​

The vertical geometry is an interpolation — the reference kit has horizontal masters only.

Sizes ​

All five macOS control sizes; regular is the default.

Liquid Glass ​

Add data-macvue-glass="on" to an ancestor to enable Liquid Glass. The slider automatically uses refraction while its knob is pressed.

The pressed lens follows the clicked knob geometry from the macOS UI kit. Use the preview button to enlarge the refraction without changing the component geometry. See the Liquid Glass guide for the opt-in boundary, fallbacks and prior art.
