How to change the color of ticks of a slider?

I am trying to find the property of a slider that controls the color of major and minor ticks in Matlab 2021a. The slider has a FontColor Property that only changes the numbers of the slider, but not the ticks. For example, in the following picture I changed the FontColor property that only changed the colors of the numbers from black to white but not the ticks' color. How can I change this color of ticks?

Thanks Jonas, but this post doesn't seem to have an option for this basic slider. Thank you anyway.

Hi Mahmud Hasan,

I understand that you wanted to change the tick colors in slider GUI Component. With standard sliders, you cannot set the tick colors. The “FontColor” property can only be used to change the tick label colors.

Please refer to the MATLAB Central File Exchange to know more about the package:

Thanks Parveen. Do you know if Matlab has any plan to support to change the color of ticks in standard slider? If they do then what would be the approximate time? Thanks.

Hi Mahamud,

I have informed the relevant team about this. This may be rolled out in future releases. Unfortunately, I cannot state any time frame.
