Make Sliders Great Again - for Character Ranges

[Roland Kahlenberg]

So, deploying character ranges for the new text styling feature is a PITA. 

So, I'm thinking we have the wrong tool(s) for character ranges. So, howzabout we have a new type of slider that has TWO controls instead of the regular single control. The Left Control defines the start range and the Right Control, the length of the range. And via scripting/Expression control, we simply add arguments to get at each of these controls.

And we'll call this 2-Control Slider, S2lider.  😄 

My thoughts are with S2lider, it'll be much easier for average and even experienced users to start enjoying using the very cool text styling feature and hopeful/wishful that it'll be more performant than the verbose lines of code that's currently required to achieve identical results. 

So, we'll have a specific S2lider for Characters, another for Words and another for Lines and one more for Paragraph. and it's essentually the same slider but with functionality Based On a DropMenu to select the Selection Mode which also gets applied when the user applies this option via the Expression Controls Menu.
