- Around line 39-41: Update the Slider accessibility tip to distinguish naming
behavior by thumb count: two-thumb sliders receive “Minimum” and “Maximum”
labels, while sliders with three or more thumbs receive “Value n of m” labels.
Preserve the guidance that aria-label or aria-labelledby is needed for a single
thumb without a visible label.
In `@src/runtime/components/Slider.vue`:
- Around line 105-119: Update the Slider render path using rootAttrs and
thumbAttrs so fallthrough attributes are filtered from the current attrs during
each render rather than relying on cached computed values from useAttrs().
Preserve the existing aria-label fallback behavior, and add a regression test
that changes aria-label after mount and verifies the thumb receives the updated
value.

The thumb is the element rendered with `role="slider"`, so route consumer `aria-*` attributes there instead of the root, which is neither focusable nor labelable. Dropping the hardcoded label also restores Reka UI's own `Minimum`/`Maximum` and `Value n of m` names for multi-thumb sliders, and lets `aria-valuetext` through. A single unnamed thumb still falls back to `Thumb` so it is never left nameless. Closes nuxt#6782

Reka UI names the thumbs of a range slider by their position, `Minimum` / `Maximum` for two and `Value n of m` for three or more. Forwarding one `aria-label` to every thumb replaced those with the same string, leaving the thumbs indistinguishable. Only a single thumb now takes the consumer `aria-*` attributes. A label that the thumbs do not take stays on the root, which is given a `group` role so the name is actually exposed, `aria-label` on a roleless element being ignored when the accessible name is computed.

WAI-ARIA APG slider pattern aria-valuetext focusable role slider multiple thumbs
💡 Result:
The WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices Guide (APG) defines the multi-thumb slider pattern as an extension of the standard slider pattern, designed to handle multiple independent or related values within a single range [1]. Key accessibility requirements for the multi-thumb slider pattern include: Role and Focus: Each thumb must be an independent, focusable element with role="slider" [1][2]. To make these elements focusable, the tabindex="0" attribute is required [3][4]. Focus should be placed directly on the visual thumb that represents the slider value [5][4]. Required Attributes: Each slider thumb must implement the following ARIA attributes: - aria-valuenow: The current value of the thumb [1][6]. - aria-valuemin: The minimum allowed value [1][6]. - aria-valuemax: The maximum allowed value [1][6]. - Labeling: Each thumb requires an accessible name, typically provided via aria-label or aria-labelledby [1][3][2]. Optional Attributes (aria-valuetext): When the numeric value (aria-valuenow) is not sufficiently descriptive or intuitive—such as when representing non-numeric data or complex units—aria-valuetext should be used to provide a human-readable string [4][6]. This is particularly useful for improving the experience for assistive technology users by conveying context (e.g., "7 out of 10" or currency formatting) [4][7][8]. Interaction and Behavior: - Keyboard Support: Users interact with each thumb using standard slider keys: Left/Down Arrow (decrease), Right/Up Arrow (increase), Home (minimum), and End (maximum) [3][9][5]. - Multi-Thumb Coordination: In scenarios where thumbs define a range (e.g., minimum and maximum price), they often have mutual constraints. When one thumb's value limits the other, the aria-valuemin or aria-valuemax attributes of the dependent slider must be updated dynamically as the controlling thumb moves [1][2]. - Tab Order: The tab order should remain constant regardless of the visual position or value of the thumbs [1]. For multi-thumb sliders, it is also recommended to group the thumbs within a container element using role="group" with a clear, shared label to communicate the collective purpose of the sliders [2][7].

Expose per-thumb aria-valuetext for multi-thumb sliders.
When thumbs.value > 1, aria-valuetext remains on SliderRoot (role="group"), while each focusable SliderThumb (role="slider") receives no caller value text. Define a per-thumb contract, bind each value to its thumb, and add a regression test.

Resolves #6782
❓ Type of change
📚 Description
Sliderset a staticaria-labelon the thumb:The thumb is the element Reka UI renders with
role="slider", so that string is the slider's accessible name, and it could not be replaced.aria-labelon<USlider>fell through toSliderRoot— a<span>with no role that is never announced — and theuiprop only accepts classes. Three consequences, all described in #6782:SliderThumbImplresolves$attrs['aria-label'] || getLabel(...), andgetLabel()yieldsMinimum/Maximumfor two thumbs andValue n of mfor three or more. The hardcoded string overrode all of them, so a price filter announced "Thumb 1 of 2" instead of "Minimum".aria-valuetextcould not be supplied, so sliders with units announced a bare number.This PR sets
inheritAttrs: falseand splits$attrsby prefix:aria-*goes to the thumb, everything else stays on the root. The hardcoded label is gone, so Reka UI's multi-thumb names come back on their own.Thumbis kept only as a fallback for a single thumb that has neitheraria-labelnoraria-labelledby, so #5313's nameless-slider case doesn't regress.No new API surface, and no change for anyone not passing

Thetooltipbranch is covered too, since the hardcoded label was duplicated across both branches.📝 Checklist
Note
This touches the same two
SliderThumblines as #6768, which movesuseFormField'sariaAttrsonto the thumb. The two changes compose — that PR handles form attributes, this one handles consumer attributes — but whichever lands second will need a trivial rebase. Worth checking the merge order of the twov-binds at that point so a consumeraria-describedbycan't shadow the form's error association.
