How to Use Sliders in Floating Menus? Documentation Missing

Floating Menus / Widgets
1

Hello,

I have been experimenting with Floating Menus in BetterTouchTool and noticed that sliders can be added as menu items. However, I couldn't find any official documentation or examples explaining how sliders in Floating Menus are supposed to work.

I tried using the Init Script and Value Changed Script (both in AppleScript, Real JavaScript, and JXA), but I keep running into issues:

  • The slider always resets to 0 after moving it.
  • The Value Changed Script sometimes doesn’t return any value or is not executed.
  • I am not sure what the correct JSON format is for returning values to the slider.

Could you please clarify:

  1. Are sliders in Floating Menus currently supported and fully functional?
  2. Is there an example of a working configuration for Init Script and Value Changed Script?
  3. What is the expected JSON format or return method for updating the slider’s value and label?

Thank you very much!
