Slider thumbPosition crazy values

[Dennis Brown]

Thanks Mark,

I also just "fixed" the problem by putting a script into the sliders 
(slider 1 also started generating crazy values the more I tested it).

on mouseup
   set thumbPosition of me to round( thumbposition of me)
end mouseup

So I can fix it, but it still doesn't explain why I should have to fix 
it.
