Placing this script in the question text will reverse the slider direction. (maybe this should be a question setting)

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">    
 
  $(document).ready(function() {    
    setTimeout(function() { 
      $('#question{QID} input[type="text"]').bootstrapSlider('setAttribute', 'reversed', true); 
      $('#question{QID} input[type="text"]').bootstrapSlider('refresh');
    }, 100);    
    });
</script>
Cheers,

Reverse the vertical slider scale. Not from horizontal to vertical. How should that be done without the approach Tpartner is showing?

I tried to swap the min/max values. Which worked visually. But no way to drag the slider down since the logic prevented any movement.

As I suggested, perhaps it should be a question setting. That way it could be included in the slider initiation function instead of applied after initiation (thus avoiding the small time delay). Of course, if it was a question setting, we would also need to handle the slider max/min and left/right text positions.

Yes, exactly :)
But you'd also need to handle the max/min text and left/right text positions (which don't seem to work very well in vertical anyway.)

Yep, seems broken currently. But : any idea for the best place ?

Most survey packages stick to left / right labeling when offering vertical slider in the same question type as horizontal slider.

Often there is a section for visual representation.
Beside a option for just hiding values you sometimes find a option to "flip min and max values".

Personally I would find a option for N/A (not applicable) more useful than flipping the scale orientation ;-)
But Limesurvey is trying to cramp too many options in too few questiontype.
More questiontypes with less options will be better for users and developers. Question type objects where are you?

My opinion for the text positioning in vertical sliders would be:

Min/Max text - To the left of the slider
Left/Right text - Above and below the slider

I second that.
But I am only into left to right reading.
I assume RTL reader are also top to down oriented.
