Property Type Default Description
start number 0 Range starting value (exclusive).
stop number 5 Range stop value (inclusive).
step number 1 Describes how many values each Symbol represents. For example, for a start value of 0, a stop value of 10 and a step of 2, we will end up with 5 Symbols, with each Symbol representing value increments of 2.
fractions number 1 Number of equal subdivisions that can be selected as a rating in each Symbol. For example, for a fractions value of 2, you will be able to select a rating with a precision of down to half a Symbol. Must be >= 1
initialRating number 0 The value that will be used as an initial rating. This is the old initialRate.
