shrink slider thumbs #128

Closed amanda-phet closed 5 years ago

Make them slightly smaller so that you can see the 0 mark, but keep the touch areas as large as possible. Maybe make the thumbs a tiny bit shorter in addition to scaling them.

I have changed the slider thumbs so that they are less "heavy", but still have the same touch areas as before. They might appear to be a little bit too thin now. Also the 0 value only barely peeks out from below the sliders. Below are images of what this looks like for right now.

Assigning to @amanda-phet to get feedback on what sliders should look like/where to go from here.

amanda-phet commented 5 years ago

yeah, can you make them just a little bit taller?

I'm OK with the amount of the 0 line that is visible. You can always look at the equation for values (which is exactly what I do) but this is just a little more helpful.

Ok, sounds good. I have increased the thumbs from height 8 to 10. Here is what it looks like now. I can increase the height even more if needed.

I like them! These look great to me.
