I've been trying to implement tooltips for the ticks in the slider. I want these to be shown when the slider thumb is dragged, but also on mouse enter for the individual ticks when the thumb is
not being dragged. To do this I needed to capture dragstarted/dragstopped events, which I managed to work around as in
this thread. Now, these are my feature requests for the slider:
1. Add the dragstarted/dragstopped events out of the box.
2. Add tooltip support out of the box
3. It would be awesome if the slider ticks could be created from a collection of objects, not only a double collection. What I'm building is a component for rating language skills. Each level in the rating scale is a LevelItem object with name, description, etc. If the slider could be bound to these objects, and the items in the ticktemplate (and of course the tooltips) could be bound against the various properties in the objects, that would make my job a lot easier.
