The following is the basic syntax of the slider tag :
<SLIDER name=name orientation="horizontal"|"vertical">
where name identifies the text area programmatically.
The slider tag can be expanded with the following elements:
<SLIDER name=name orientation="horizontal"|"vertical"> <LOCATION>location</LOCATION> <SIZE>size</SIZE> <DATACLASS>class_name</DATACLASS> <ATTRIBUTE>attribute_name</ATTRIBUTE> <MINVALUE>value</MINVALUE> <MAXVALUE>value</MAXVALUE> <MAJORTICKS>interval</MAJORTICKS> <MINORTICKS>interval</MINORTICKS> <ADJUST>class_name</ADJUST> <FLYOVER>helptext</FLYOVER> <HELPALIAS>component_name</HELPALIAS> </SLIDER> | ||
ATTRIBUTE | VALUE | DESCRIPTION |
<LOCATION> | location | Expresses the
x- and y-coordinates of the panel's location from the top left corner in logical
units. This tag is required. |
<SIZE> | size | Expresses the width
and height, respectively, of the component in logical units. This tag is required. |
<DATACLASS> | class_name | Supplies data displayed on the slider, using the DataBean interface. |
<ATTRIBUTE> | attribute_name | Contains
the data for the slider. If the dataclass tag is present, the attribute tag
must be present.
|
<MINVALUE> | value | Defines the lowest
value on the slider. This tag is required. |
<MAXVALUE> | value | Defines the highest
value on the slider. This tag is required. |
<MAJORTICKS> | interval | Marks the slider in major increments. When the tag is included, snap-to-ticks is automatically on. |
<MINORTICKS> | interval | Sets unlabelled minor-markers on the slider. When the tag is included, snap-to-ticks is automatically on. |
<ADJUST> | class_name | Allows the user to adjust the slider. The class must extend the EventHandler class and use the interface com.sun.java.swing.event.ChangeListener. The framework will automatically create an object of the specified class and call its stateChanged method. |
<FLYOVER> | helptext | Should be displayed
when context help is requested for this component.
Helptext defines the key for loading the text string from the resource bundle. If the string is not found, the helptext string will appear as it does in the Panel Definition Markup Language (PDML) source file. |
<HELPALIAS> | component_name | Should be displayed when context help is requested for this component. |
