Thanks Mitch I found your function helpful. I was having trouble with
the slide as the percent value or the xProc in your equation was
inaccurate and changed if I click the slider a second time. I did
however fine tune your equation for my own purposes. Here's my result:
var fraction = x / this.dragCfg.containerMaxx;
var expected = (100 * fraction) / (100/f) + 1;
The expected value now becomes in a fraction 4 = 1,2,3,4 or 5.
Hope this might help someone.
