However, when the slider is instantiated, it is triggering onValueChanged with the default min value. The setting is being correctly saved because I don’t show the slider right away. Only when the slider is show, this is happening and I see the result of the change in settings.

Hi,

How about:

import QtQuick 2.3
import QtQuick.Controls 1.2
import Qt.labs.settings 1.0

ApplicationWindow {
    width: 320
    height: 200
    visible: true

    Settings {
        id: settings
        property alias sliderValue: slider.value
    }

    GroupBox {
        title: slider.value
        Slider {
            id: slider
            stepSize: 1
            minimumValue: 60
            maximumValue: 180
            anchors.centerIn: parent
        }
    }
}
