Description

The Slider control allows the input of a range of values between min and max. It can be horizontal or vertical. The result is returned as a string in value..

To add a control to your app, choose the control’s icon in the Toolbar, then position it on the Design Screen. Use the Property Editor to set the properties you need, then add functions to your code to respond to the events that come from the control.

This control uses non-standard event names. AppStudio will generate an event line like

Function Slider1_onchange()  ' BASIC
Slider1_onchange = function() { //JavaScript

The code needs to be modified as follows:

Function Slider1_input_onchange()  'BASIC
Slider1_input.onchange = function() { //JavaScript

This control uses the Bootstrap-slider. Complete documentation is here: https://github.com/seiyria/bootstrap-slider. Many more options which can be set at runtime are listed there.

Properties

Standard properties are supported, plus:

colorOfHandle() Color of slider handle. Can be name, #RRGGBB, rgb(R,G,B) or transparent.
colorOfSelection() Color of selected area. Can be name, #RRGGBB, rgb(R,G,B) or transparent.
colorOfTrackHigh() Color of unselected area. Can be name, #RRGGBB, rgb(R,G,B) or transparent.

Events

'Change the color of the background at runtime
$(Slider1).css("background-color","red")
