Slider: customize position of labels

Hello, may I ask if anyone knows how to customise the position of labels in a slider question? I do not wish to have the starting label position be at '0' which is currently the case as seen here:

Thank you so much!

    Have this as your first label: 

    0

    Ooh thank you! I tried that and it works (: However, I realise I needed to find a way to reposition the "MI", "MO", and "SE" labels too as they are not equidistant from each other. I am going to try this code on each label: 

     MI

    and adjust the positioning accordingly by trial and error. If anyone knows of a better solution, let me know!
    Thank you so much ahmedA ! I'll use that code to hide the start and end marks that I will use as reference points for the scale.

    With position absolute, I would recommend using relative units, so that the element stays at the same place regardless of the screen size.
