Tips for using sliders
Use multiple sliders for a variable

different ranges.

press
ee to move to another element in the work area.
Associate a different variable with a slider
• Click the text box for the variable name and type the name of the
numeric variable to use.
• With the slider active, click the
h button to select a variable from
the list.
