Can I key in the value of a slider field?

Question

I've been playing around with the slider field type.  I like it, but it is soooooo fiddly to try and set the value when working in a list.  I'd love to have the chance to just type the value into field; That, or be able to change the type of a field, say from slider to a number field type or a rating field type.   Are any of these possible?

Hi @Adrian.Lester ,

Neither of those are possible at this time unfortunately; typing in the value for a slider field, and switching a field type.

If possible, please share this feedback within your JPD under the Give feedback tab so engineering and product are at least aware of these ideas!

In the meantime, as you mentioned - it might make sense to use a number field instead of a slider field since the value can be typed / entered.
