Currently the slider updates its value on the
click
event or when the user drags for at least one pixel. This looks weird, because the thumb label shows up as soon as the user puts down their pointer, but the value updates only if they lift it or they start dragging. There will always be a value update, because the user can't move their pointer outside the element without either lifting it or triggering the drag event.Furthermore, the native
input type="range"
updates its value onmousedown
as well and doing so makes the slider feel snappier.
