It seems the Makie documentation has updated and there is no longer a textslider structure…

[http://makie.juliaplots.org/v0.15.2/examples/layoutables/slider/index.html](http://makie.juliaplots.org/v0.15.2/examples/layoutables/slider/index.html)

I want to know how I would be able to attach a slider to my scene which hosts a live animation. The ‘current’ documentation only shows how it is used within Figures.

Many thanks!

Have a look here [http://makie.juliaplots.org/stable/documentation/layoutables/#adding\_to\_a\_scene](http://makie.juliaplots.org/stable/documentation/layoutables/#adding_to_a_scene)

You can just do Slider(scene, bbox = some\_bbox) for manual placement, or you go the layoutscene route where a layout is already attached to the scene, or you attach one yourself.
