so difficult to slide slider to correct position

Question

theres a slider i need to slide until it has a certain value. i find it very difficult to slide to the correct value.

any offset less than 6 seems not to do anything

anything over 5 seems to just move quite randomly

heres the code im using to try to get to the right value

while miles_value.get_attribute('innerHTML').replace(",","").strip() != str(mil):
    if int(miles_value.get_attribute('innerHTML').replace(",","").strip()) < mil:
        move.click_and_hold(miles_slider).move_by_offset(6, 0).release().perform()
        print("were les than goal so offsetting positivley")
    else:
        move.click_and_hold(miles_slider).move_by_offset(-7, 0).release().perform()
        print("were more than goal so offsetting negativly")
    print("g4.5")
    print(miles_slider.get_attribute('aria-valuenow'))
    print(str(miles_value.get_attribute('innerHTML').replace(",","")).strip()+" != "+str(mil))

this give me an output of

20000 != 25000
were les than goal so offsetting positivley
g4.5
35.3
22500 != 25000
were les than goal so offsetting positivley
g4.5
47.1
27500 != 25000
were more than goal so offsetting negativly
g4.5
52.9
30000 != 25000
were more than goal so offsetting negativly
g4.5
52.9
30000 != 25000
were more than goal so offsetting negativly
g4.5
47.1
27500 != 25000
were more than goal so offsetting negativly
g4.5
35.3

....

and can take over 5 minutes to get the right value

does anyone have any advice for this type of thing?

just for context im aiming for the miles slider on this site

Answer 1

Try below code , I have Tested it at multiple sizes and allowed values worked fine for me like

Using an offset of 9 for positive cases and -9 for negative cases if there is one, also added the locators as needed
