How to make marker mark any where on progress dynamically

Question

I have a problem with marker, I want the marker to be stretchable to mark anywhere on the progress bar

As shown in below GIF

Question: I want to select any point on the progress bar and be able to stretch the marker, which can be multiple marker points.

I don't know how to do it with below code:

var player = videojs('demo');

player.markers({
   markerStyle: {
      'width':'9px',
      'border-radius': '40%',
      'background-color': 'orange'
   },
   markerTip:{
      display: true,
      text: function(marker) {
         return "I am a marker tip: "+ marker.text;
      }
   },
   breakOverlay:{
      display: true,
      displayTime: 4,
      style:{
         'width':'100%',
         'height': '30%',
         'background-color': 'rgba(10,10,10,0.6)',
         'color': 'white',
         'font-size': '16px'
      },
      text: function(marker) {
         return "This is a break overlay: " + marker.overlayText;
      },
   },
   markers: [
      {time: 9.5, text: "this", overlayText: "1", class: "special-blue"},
      {time: 16,  text: "is", overlayText: "2"},
      {time: 23.6,text: "so", overlayText: "3"},
      {time: 28,  text: "cool", overlayText: "4"}
   ]
});

Answer 1

where you want the pointer, just put time in the time: 20.5 and increase the width of the markerStyle: { 'width': '190px' }, so you'll get long line in video progressbar!

here we go

var player = videojs('demo');

player.markers({
   markerStyle: {
      'width':'190px',
      'border-radius': '2px',
      'background-color': 'orange'
   },
   markerTip:{
      display: true,
      text: function(marker) {
         return "I am a marker tip: "+ marker.text;
      }
   },
   breakOverlay:{
      display: true,
      displayTime: 120,
      style:{
         'width':'100%',
         'height': '30%',
         'background-color': 'rgba(10,10,10,0.6)',
         'color': 'white',
         'font-size': '16px'
      },
      text: function(marker) {
         return "This is a break overlay: " + marker.overlayText;
      },
   },
   markers: [
      {time: 20.5, text: "this", overlayText: "1", class: "special-blue"},
   ]
});
