All Implemented Interfaces:: Drawable

public class Slider
extends Control

Safe: Instances of this class are selectable user interface objects that represent a range of positive, numeric values.

At any given moment, a given slider will have a single selection that is considered to be its value, which is constrained to be within the range of values the slider represents (that is, between its minimum and maximum values).

Typically, sliders will be made up of five areas:

an arrow button for decrementing the value
a page decrement area for decrementing the value by a larger amount
a thumb for modifying the value by mouse dragging
a page increment area for incrementing the value by a larger amount
an arrow button for incrementing the value

Based on their style, sliders are either HORIZONTAL (which have a left facing button for decrementing the value and a right facing button for incrementing it) or VERTICAL (which have an upward facing button for decrementing the value and a downward facing buttons for incrementing it).

On some platforms, the size of the slider's thumb can be varied relative to the magnitude of the range of values it represents (that is, relative to the difference between its maximum and minimum values). Typically, this is used to indicate some proportional value such as the ratio of the visible area of a document to the total amount of space that it would take to display it. SWT supports setting the thumb size even if the underlying platform does not, but in this case the appearance of the slider will not change.

Styles:: HORIZONTAL, VERTICAL
Events:: Selection

Note: Only one of the styles HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL may be specified.

IMPORTANT: This class is not intended to be subclassed.

Constructor Detail

Slider

public Slider(Composite parent,
 int style)

Enabled: Constructs a new instance of this class given its parent and a style value describing its behavior and appearance.

The style value is either one of the style constants defined in class SWT which is applicable to instances of this class, or must be built by bitwise OR'ing together (that is, using the int "|" operator) two or more of those SWT style constants. The class description lists the style constants that are applicable to the class. Style bits are also inherited from superclasses.

parent - a composite control which will be the parent of the new instance (cannot be null)

style - the style of control to construct
