Editing Slider (section)

==Use with dome switches==
[[Rubber dome]] switches require a stem that extends from the top of the keycap down to the top of the dome, which is used to depress the dome. In most cases the stem is a slider that is part of the keycap, but many rubber dome keyboards are fitted with discrete sliders. [[Topre]] continues this practice today.

One example is the [[AppleDesign Keyboard]] model M2980, which came in variants with either discrete sliders or with the sliders in the bottom of the keycaps.
