None of this is the point of the sliderbutton. I tend
to think that
representing discrete numerical quantities (i.e. Channels 1 to 16) is
best done with the roman alphabet.
OK, but I also see that the widget itself is capable of variable
non-discrete numerical quantities.
Basically, use the sliderbuttons when the number is
important, use the
fansliders when it isn't.
There are cases when both are important. Also, some people might
find the graphical fan invasive, but still want a graphical indication
as well as numerical one.
Sounds like a 3rd widget to me.
