QSlider: jQuery-based Slider Control
The Slider is a graphical UI component frequently seen in rich client
(Windows) applications. It lets the user easily pick a value from a range.
You can see the control in action below. Note that the QSlider would not be
possible without the tight integration between QCubed and jQuery.
Instantiate a
QSlider control just like you would any other QControl.
Then, set some its properties:
- MinValue and MaxValue to define the range from which the user can pick a value.
- Steps to determine how many steps (discrete points) are there on the continuum between
the minimum and maximum values.
- InitialValue to set the initial value of the slider.
- CssClass determines the styling on the overall control.
Note how the CssClass on the container is set to "ui-slider-1" -
there's another sample styles called "ui-slider-2" (look at
slider.css for its definition). Feel free to provide your own slider
styles!
- CssClassHandle sets the CSS style for the "grabby thing" (the handle) - the
bar that the user drags around to set the value of the control.
- ShowValueTextBox: a boolean that determines whether the text box showing
the currently chosen value is shown. That QTextBox is built into the QSlider.
