Slider State Properties

Controls > Advanced Controls > Slider > Slider State Properties

MaxRange and MinRange

Gets or sets the maximum value of the control. The MinRange property gets or sets the minimum value of the control. These properties can also be accessed via the Properties tab, and they affect the number of ticks on the slider. The value of MinRange must be smaller than the value of MaxRange. To reverse the values on the slider to be in descending order, use the Invert property.

• JScript

var longVal = Slider.MaxRange();
Slider.MaxRange(longVal);

var longVal = Slider.MinRange();
Slider.MinRange(longVal);

• VBScript

longVal = Slider.MaxRange
Slider.MaxRange = longVal

longVal = Slider.MinRange
Slider.MinRange =longVal

• Python

longVal = Slider.MaxRange
Slider.MaxRange = longVal

longVal = Slider.MinRange
Slider.MinRange =longVal

Element	Description
longVal	An integer or floating-point value that indicates the maximum or minimum value of the Slider control.

Position

Gets or sets the logical position of the pointer. This property should be set in the Start event.

• JScript

var longPos = Slider.Position();
Slider.Position(longPos);

• VBScript

longPos = Slider.Position
Slider.Position = longPos

• Python

longPos = Slider.Position
Slider.Position = longPos

Element	Description
longPos	An integer or a floating-point value that determines the logical position of the pointer.

LineSize and PageSize

The LineSize property gets or sets the size of the interval when moving the slider with the keyboard. The PageSize property gets or sets the interval for moving the slider with page-related keys. These properties affect the feel and operation of the Slider.

• Use a small value of LineSize to allow fine adjustment of the slider via the arrow keys.

• Use a large value of PageSize to allow quick changes of Slider position using the Page Up and Page Down keys.

• Use Home and End to move quickly to the MinRange and MaxRange values via the keyboard, independent of the PageSize setting.

• JScript

var longSize = Slider.LineSize();
Slider.LineSize(longSize);

longSize = Slider.PageSize();
Slider.PageSize(longSize);

• VBScript

longSize = Slider.LineSize
Slider.LineSize = longSize

longSize = Slider.PageSize
Slider.PageSize = longSize

• Python

longSize = Slider.LineSize
	Slider.LineSize = longSize

longSize = Slider.PageSize
	Slider.PageSize = longSize

Element	Description
longSize	A value that indicates the incremental adjustment to the Slider position while using the keyboard.
