+# `<ixfx-labelled-slider-input>`
+
+A composite slider input that pairs an editable label (`ixfx-editable-number`) with a slider (`ixfx-slider-input`). The two controls are always in sync — dragging the slider updates the number, and editing the number moves the slider.
+
+## Basic usage
+
+```html
+<ixfx-labelled-slider-input label="Volume" value="0.5" min="0" max="1" step="0.01">
+</ixfx-labelled-slider-input>
+```
+
+## Layout
+
+Layout is driven by a container query on the component's own height.
+
+| Height          | Layout                          |
+|-----------------|---------------------------------|
+| >= 80px (default) | **Vertical** — label above slider |
+| < 80px          | **Horizontal** — label beside slider |
+
+The component defaults to `height: 100px`, so unconstrained usage shows the vertical layout. Constrain the height in your CSS to switch to horizontal.
+
+### Force a layout with `--flow`
+
+Override the container query entirely:
+
+```html
+<ixfx-labelled-slider-input style="--flow: row" ...>   <!-- always horizontal -->
+<ixfx-labelled-slider-input style="--flow: column" ...> <!-- always vertical   -->
+```
+
+### Control label width (horizontal layout)
+
+```html
+<ixfx-labelled-slider-input style="--label-width: 8em" ...>
+```
+
+## Mini mode
+
+When the component is very small the label is hidden and only the slider is shown.
+
+Mini mode activates when **both** of the following are true:
+- `width < mini-width-threshold` (default 120px)
+- `height < mini-height-threshold` (default 40px)
+
+Override with a CSS variable:
+
+```html
+<ixfx-labelled-slider-input style="--mini: 1" ...> <!-- always mini  -->
+<ixfx-labelled-slider-input style="--mini: 0" ...> <!-- never mini   -->
+```
+
+## Formatter
+
+Apply a function to format the displayed value. Set it as a JS property — it cannot be set as an HTML attribute.
+
+```js
+const el = document.querySelector('ixfx-labelled-slider-input');
+el.formatter = (v) => `${Math.round(Number(v))}%`;
+```
+
+The formatter receives the raw string value and returns the string to display in the editable-number label. Note the inner slider has no tooltip — the label already shows the value, so a tooltip would be redundant.
+

-### SVG in a fixed `100×24` viewBox
+### SVG in a dynamic viewBox (tight cross axis + tight end inset)
+
+All geometry is computed in a `100×cross` viewBox coordinate space for horizontal, or `cross×100` for vertical, with the track running along the long axis. Only `LONG = 100` stays fixed. Each render computes the tightest cross that fits the actual content — markers (`--marker-length/thickness/offset`), lane widths/offsets, and `--track-width` — as the fixed point `cross = pad / (0.5 − F)` where `F` is the largest fractional half-extent and `pad = 2` covers strokes/linecaps (clamped to 4…40, fractions capped at 0.45). The default needle slider lands around `cross ≈ 6.7` instead of the legacy `CROSS = 24`, so the element's block size hugs the track instead of reserving 7 units of dead air per side. `marker-style="none"` with thin lanes collapses to the minimum. The long-axis end insets are computed the same way from the markers' along-axis extent (dot/triangle caps extend past the track ends; needles need only the stroke pad), clamped to 1…5, so the track uses the full available width. Authored `--track-margin` / `--track-margin-start` / `--track-margin-end` are added on top per end (scaled back proportionally only if the track span would drop below 10 units). Pointer mapping is calibrated to the drawn track span, not the host edges, so the visible track ends hit min/max exactly. The SVG `viewBox` attribute handles scaling to actual DOM pixels, so every calculation stays coordinate-system-agnostic. Because the inset is dynamic, gradients should span the full `0`–`100` long axis rather than the old fixed `5`–`95` track span.
 
-All geometry is computed in a fixed `100×24` viewBox coordinate space for horizontal, or `24×100` for vertical, with the track running along the long axis. The `CROSS = 24` constant sets the perpendicular dimension, and `LONG = 100` sets the long axis. The SVG `viewBox` attribute handles scaling to actual DOM pixels, so every calculation stays coordinate-system-agnostic. The path is always `(viewBox-relative) × (host size / viewBox size)` regardless of the host's rendered size.
+Lane stroke widths resolve to screen px per render (`width fraction × measured cross px`, emitted as a px number with `vector-effect: non-scaling-stroke` so it paints verbatim). A `calc(var * 24%)` percentage cannot do this job: percentages resolve against the host-size-independent viewBox diagonal (~71 units), so documented 0..1 fractions painted ~10x too thin and never scaled with the host. Because strokes are px-per-render, a host `ResizeObserver` re-renders on size changes to keep them (and the measured box) exact. Dashes stay frozen via the same `non-scaling-stroke`, so `--lane-dasharray` values keep their px meaning.
 
 ### Lane offset needs a CSS unit
 
-`transform: translateY(${offset})` (unitless) is **invalid** CSS — a `<length>` is required, otherwise the whole `transform` declaration is dropped and the lane renders on the centreline. The code uses `translateY(${offset * CROSS / 2}px)` so the offset is expressed in viewBox units (with `px` suffix for CSS), making the offset stable across host sizes.
