The FloatInput widget allows selecting a floating point value using a spinbox. It behaves like a slider except that lower and upper bounds are optional and a specific value can be entered. Value can be changed using keyboard (up, down, page up, page down), mouse wheel and arrow buttons.

Discover more on using widgets to add interactivity to your applications in the how-to guides on interactivity. Alternatively, learn how to set up callbacks and (JS-)links between parameters or how to use them as part of declarative UIs with Param.
