When parenting any Panel COMP to a Slider COMP the child disappears.
This bug was present since a long time ago, so I don’t know if it’s purely a bug.
Trying the same parenting with the sliderHorz from the Palette, the child Panel COMP will just be locked inside the viewer of the sliderHorz in the bottom left corner. Maybe this can help understanding the issue.
Thanks for the report.
It seems to be an issue with the internal Text COMP rendering order.
If you reduce the Text COMP alpha you can then see the children elements.
We’ve logged it for a closer look.
Yes, the Text COMP is covering the children, but there are other issues i think.
This list of examples might help.
I pointed out what is bugging, hope it will be useful to target the problems.

Thanks for the further examples. We’ll have a look.
[EDIT].
So for the top-left example:
Layout Children left-to-right:
Children are any interior nodes inside slider3 as well as any connected children underneath.
So the layout would apply to the interior knob and text background panel COMPs as well.
As for the top-right example:
The Slider ‘Children’ page has Crop set to On by default. You can turn it off to match the container.
The main issue is that the slider uses the regular panel layout tools, so in your case I would
suggest putting it inside a container before adding buttons.
Cheers.
Thank you Rob!
Everything is clear now that I understood that:
in the Slider ‘Children’ Page the Crop parameter is set to ‘On’ by default.
Crystal clear! Sorry for the bug report, i knew it was coming from my misunderstanding.
Moreover, I usually always use a Container COMP and place all the children inside.
I did those examples just to see all the possible configurations.
Those were very good tests! And a good confirmation of how the panels are made up of other panel components for network builders.
