Using text labels for a control with continuous numerical values

[westin]

I want to present the user with a slider that is labeled, e.g. "none," "a little bit," "medium," "a lot," "completely." However, I want to allow responses intermediate between these values, and return the choice as a number. So, for example, I might make it a 0-10 scale, so that "none" is 0 and "completely" is 10. If they wanted to respond in between "medium" and "a lot" their response might be something like 6.3.

However, when I "Use text labels for scale markers" it seems to only allow the selection of those markers, not intermediate values.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Greg

Never mind... I just made the silly mistake of not adjusting the representation from the default integer representation to double.
