This document covers the following topics:
Sets manual tick marks for a slider control.
This action cannot be used if the control has the "Auto ticks (a)" STYLE, since the tick marks are added automatically in this case.
Note that it does not make sense to add tick marks at the beginning or end of the slider's range, since these tick marks are automatically created by the control.
Tick marks are only shown if the control has either (or both) of the "Side 1 ticks (1)" or "Side 2 ticks (2)" STYLE flags set.
To clear the manually-added tick marks, use the CLEAR-TICKS action.
