Here is a workaround for version 2.6x.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
insertSlider ({QID});
function insertSlider (qID) {
// Identify this question
var thisQuestion = $('#question'+qID);
thisQuestion.addClass('with-dropdown-sliders');
// Loop through all array drop-downs
$('select.multiflexiselect', thisQuestion).each(function(i, el){
var thisCell = $(el).closest('td');
// Hide the dropdown
$(el).hide();
// Some dropdown values
var currentVal = $(el).val();
var firstVal = Number($('option[value!=""]:first', el).attr('value'));
var secondVal = Number($('option[value!=""]:eq(1)', el).attr('value'));
var lastVal = Number($('option[value!=""]:last', el).attr('value'));
// Insert an input for the slider
var thisInput = $('<input class="inserted-input" type="text" />').insertAfter(el);
// Initiate the slider
thisInput.val(currentVal).bootstrapSlider({
'min': firstVal,
'max': lastVal,
'step': secondVal - firstVal,
'value': Number(currentVal),
'tooltip': 'always'
});
// Listener on the slider
$(thisInput).on('slideStop', function () {
if($('.tooltip', thisCell).is(':hidden')) {
$('.tooltip', thisCell).show();
$('.tooltip', thisCell).css('margin-left', '-'+($('.tooltip', thisCell).width()/2)+'px');
}
$(el).val($(thisInput).val());
});
// Hide the slider call-out if no value selected yet
if(currentVal == '') {
$('.tooltip', thisCell).hide();
}
});
}
});
</script>
