Hello how can create a random number slider?

[image] Mehdi212: What I need is a slider that generates random numbers when it is moved, and this randomness must be produced directly by the slider itself. I’m sure it’s possible, but would likely require tracking mouse button states/events etc. (i.e. quite complicated). A simpler solution …

i know it but i, need random slider exactly i want this slider by random numbers. [image]

Difficult to understand what you want.

[image] not sure what you need exactly, but this is what I understood build a list of random numbers and pick one with a slider (from 0.000 to 1.000)

Please look at the changes in this slider; it is completely organized. What I need is a slider that generates random numbers when it is moved, and this randomness must be produced directly by the slider itself. Is it possible to generate random numbers by sliding it? And the output must come dire…

[image] fad095760: randomness must be produced directly by the slider itself. randomness doesn’t exist and you can’t define it with just one slider [image] you can maybe use Random component and plug the slider into SEED, but you still need to define the range (for number input set 1)

Not on my PC but if you can put an equation inside slider and if rand is there you can use it. Default rand use time so it is random

As @laurent_delrieu pointed, you could create a simple pseudo-random algorithm with the aid of the available functions, and use that inside the slider’s Expression editor. [kuva] Pseudo-random slider.gh (4.1 KB) [kuva]
