Slider(EvasObject)

Properties

View Source

IndicatorFormat

Sets or gets the format string for the indicator label.

Declaration

public string IndicatorFormat { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
String

Remarks

The slider may display its value somewhere other than the unit label, for example, above the slider knob that is dragged around. This function sets the format string used for this. If null, the indicator label won't be visible. If not, it sets the format string for the label text. For the label text floating point value is provided, so the label text can display up to 1 floating point value. Note that this is optional. Use a format string such as "%1.2f meters" for example, and it displays values like: "3.14 meters" for a value equal to 3.14159. By default, the indicator label is disabled.

IsIndicatorVisible

Sets or gets whether to enlarge the slider indicator (augmented knob).

Declaration

public bool IsIndicatorVisible { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean

Remarks

By default, the indicator is bigger when dragged by the user. It won't display the values set with IndicatorFormat if you disable the indicator.

View Source

IsInverted

Gets or sets whether a given slider widget's displaying values are inverted.

Declaration

public bool IsInverted { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean

Remarks

A slider may be inverted, in which case it gets its values inverted, with high values being on the left or top, and low values on the right or bottom, as opposed to normally have the low values on the former and high values on the latter, respectively, for the horizontal and vertical modes.

API Level: preview

View Source

Maximum

Sets or gets the maximum values for the slider.

Declaration

public double Maximum { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Double

Remarks

This defines the allowed maximum values to be selected by the user. If the actual value is bigger then max, it is updated to max. Actual value can be obtained with value. By default, minimum is equal to 0.0 and maximum is equal to 1.0. Maximum must be greater than minimum, otherwise the behavior is undefined.

API Level: preview

View Source

Minimum

Sets or gets the minimum values for the slider.

Declaration

public double Minimum { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Double

Remarks

This defines the allowed minimum values to be selected by the user. If the actual value is less than min, it is updated to min. Actual value can be obtained with value. By default, the minimum is equal to 0.0.

API Level: preview

View Source

SpanSize

Sets or gets the (exact) length of the bar region of a given Slider widget.

Declaration

public int SpanSize { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Int32

Remarks

This sets the minimum width (when in the horizontal mode) or height (when in the vertical mode) of the actual bar area of the slider object. This in turn affects the object's minimum size. Use this when you're not setting other size hints expanding on the given direction (like weight and alignment hints), and you would like it to have a specific size.

API Level: preview

View Source

Step

Sets or gets the step by which the slider indicator moves.

Declaration

public double Step { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Double

Remarks

This value is used when the draggable object is moved automatically i.e., in case of a key event when up/down/left/right key is pressed or in case accessibility is set and the flick event is used to increase or decrease the slider values. By default, the step value is equal to 0.05.

API Level: preview
