Class Slider

java.lang.Object

controlP5.Controller<Slider>

controlP5.Slider

All Implemented Interfaces:

CDrawable, ControllerInterface<Slider>, ControlP5Constants

public class Slider
extends Controller<Slider>

A slider is either used horizontally or vertically. when adding a slider to controlP5, the width is compared against the height. if the width is bigger, you get a horizontal slider, is the height bigger, you get a vertical slider. a slider can have a fixed slider handle (one end of the slider is fixed to the left or bottom side of the controller), or a flexible slider handle (a handle you can drag).

/**
 * ControlP5 extending Controllers
 *
 * the following example shows how to extend the Controller class to 
 * create customizable Controllers. You can either extend the Controller class itself,
 * or any class that extends Controller itself like the Slider, Button, DropdownList, etc. 
 * 
 * How to:
 *
 * 1) do a super call to the convenience constructor requiring 
 * 2 parameter (ControlP5 instance, name)  
 *
 * 2) the Controller class has a set of empty methods that allow you to capture
 * inputs from the mouse including 
 * onEnter(), onLeave(), onPress(), onRelease(), onClick(), onScroll(int), onDrag()
 * These you can override and include functionality as needed.
 *
 * 3) use method getPointer() to return the local (relative) 
 * xy-coordinates of the controller
 *  
 * 4) after instantiation custom controllers are treated the same 
 * as default controlP5 controllers.
