hslider.IsSnapToTickEnabled = true;
hslider.Minimum = 1;
hslider.Maximum = 20;
hslider.TickPlacement = TickPlacement.Both;
hslider.TickFrequency = 2;
hslider.AutoToolTipPlacement =
  AutoToolTipPlacement.BottomRight;
cv1.Children.Add(hslider);

Dim hslider As New Slider()
hslider.Width = 100
hslider.Orientation = Orientation.Horizontal
hslider.IsSnapToTickEnabled = True
hslider.Minimum = 1
hslider.Maximum = 20
hslider.TickPlacement = TickPlacement.Both
hslider.TickFrequency = 2
hslider.AutoToolTipPlacement = AutoToolTipPlacement.BottomRight
cv1.Children.Add(hslider)

XAML

<Slider Name="slider1" 
        Width="100" 
        Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Left" 
        IsSnapToTickEnabled="True" Minimum="1" Maximum="20" 
        TickPlacement="Both"  TickFrequency="2"
        AutoToolTipPlacement="BottomRight"/>

Remarks

If the Ticks property is set to a value that is not null, the TickFrequency property is not used.

The TickPlacement property must be set to a value other than None for tick marks to appear along the Slider.

Tick marks are drawn at an interval that is specified by the TickFrequency property. The tick marks start at the value of the Minimum property and continue until the value of the Maximum property is reached.
