Default? N

RevisionSlider is an extension that adds a slider interface to the diff view. This extension is not by default but can be requested.

Usage

	When on a diff page, the slider is collapsed by default and only a narrow bar labelled "Browse history" is visible at the top of the page. Click on that bar to expand the RevisionSlider.
	Once expanded, the RevisionSlider fetches data about the revisions and allows you to navigate and compare revisions on the diff page.
	Each bar represents a page revision. Bars on the top show growth in size of the page, bars on the bottom show a reduction. In the image, revision 1 represents added content, while revision 2 represents removal of content.
	To select the revisions you want to compare, use the yellow and blue knobs. The blue knob controls the newer revision, the yellow knob maps to the older revision. There are several ways to do this: You can drag and drop the knob to the desired position on the slider line. You can click on the desired position on the slider line. To select the most recent revision, click on the blue line, and to select the oldest revision, click on the yellow line. To indicate which revision you are about to select, a preview of a blue or yellow knob appears and the bar turns blue or yellow. You can click on the bar above the middle line (to select the most recent revision) or below the line (to select the oldest revision). This also gives you a preview of the knob on the center line. If you move the blue knob to a position to the left of the yellow knob, the yellow knob moves automatically, and vice versa if you move the yellow knob to a position to the right of the blue knob.
	Use the backward and forward arrows to move through revision history and show older and newer revisions.
