# Slider Updates

### Problem
Our slider is missing the ability to show tick marks with labels, which is a feature common to sliders on other platforms.

The slider thumb's tooltip also currently doesn't always show when the slider has focus, or when dragging the value if you drag away from the slider track.

### Appetite
1 week

### Solution
This is a fairly straightforward feature implemenation, just adding the option to show tick marks with optional labels. I'll look into the implementations in other UI platforms to inform the shape of the API.

The tooltip issue should be a bug fix to ensure that the tooltip is always visible when the slider has focus.

### Risks (Rabbit holes)
Designs may or may not be available for tick marks. Might need to work with design to get them, but this should be relatively simple.

### Out of scope (No-gos)
There are several other features that *could* be added to slider, including range sliders (multiple thumbs), but that is out of scope for this project.
