VA - Slider Object - set default values on open

[FredGIII]

I would like to see the slider control object have the ability to set defaults when a user opens the report.  Specifically, if I set the slider to a date range, I would like to be able to set the beginning and ending range points.  The settings should be flexible - End point for example, I would like to set to the most recent date available in the report and the beginning range point I would like to default to EndPoint - n days.  That way the users default view is always current through n days in the past.

Thank you for the idea! This was implemented in beginning in VA 7.4. See related documentation in 7.4: 

Specify Control Properties:

For sliders, the Set value to dynamic minimum and Set value to dynamic maximum properties automatically adjust the slider to the minimum or maximum values in the current data query. These properties are available for only dates and measures.
