Windows Presentation Foundation/Silverlight.
Providing a label to the Slider ticks is a basic feature, why hasnt Microsoft not implemented this feature as a built-in attribute to the Slider control in WPF/Silverlight. For instance, if the Slider control has a timer, with every hour frequency, the slider tick (thumb) could display the hours as label below or above the ticks, something like the Slider image seen in this URL http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18447963/javafx-slider-text-as-tick-label
In order to provide this, every application developer will have to create a styled template and handle it in the rendering functions. If a simple single line attribute was provided as a dependency property, this would have saved a lot for the developers. I'm wondering why Microsoft ignored such a basic feature.
