Detailed Description

The slider adds a draggable “slider” widget for selecting the value of something within a range.

A slider can be horizontal or vertical. It can contain an Icon and has a primary label as well as a units label (that is formatted with floating point values and thus accepts a printf-style format string, like “%1.2f units”. There is also an indicator string that may be somewhere else (like on the slider itself) that also accepts a format string like units. Label, Icon Unit and Indicator strings/objects are optional.

A slider may be inverted which means values invert, with high vales being on the left or top and low values on the right or bottom (as opposed to normally being low on the left or top and high on the bottom and right).

The slider should have its minimum and maximum values set by the application with elm_slider_min_max_set() and value should also be set by the application before use with elm_slider_value_set(). The span of the slider is its length (horizontally or vertically). This will be scaled by the object or applications scaling factor. At any point code can query the slider for its value with elm_slider_value_get().

This widget inherits from the Layout one, so that all the functions acting on it also work for slider objects.

This widget emits the following signals, besides the ones sent from Layout :

"changed" - Whenever the slider value is changed by the user.
"slider,drag,start" - dragging the slider indicator around has started.
"slider,drag,stop" - dragging the slider indicator around has stopped.
"delay,changed" - A short time after the value is changed by the user. This will be called only when the user stops dragging for a very short period or when they release their finger/mouse, so it avoids possibly expensive reactions to the value change.
"focused" - When the slider has received focus. (since 1.8)
"unfocused" - When the slider has lost focus. (since 1.8)
"language,changed" - the program's language changed (since 1.9)

Available styles for it:

"default"

Default content parts of the slider widget that you can use for are:

"icon" - An icon of the slider
"end" - A end part content of the slider

Default text parts of the slider widget that you can use for are:

"default" - A label of the slider

Supported elm_object common APIs.

Evas_Object * elm_slider_add ( Evas_Object * parent )

Add a new slider widget to the given parent Elementary (container) object.

Parameters

parent The parent object.

Returns: a new slider widget handle or NULL, on errors.

This function inserts a new slider widget on the canvas.

References EINA_SAFETY_ON_NULL_RETURN_VAL.

◆ elm_slider_horizontal_set()

void elm_slider_horizontal_set	(	Evas_Object *	obj,
		Eina_Bool	horizontal
	)

Set the orientation of a given slider widget.

Use this function to change how your slider is to be disposed: vertically or horizontally.

By default it's displayed horizontally.

Parameters

[in] horizontal

◆ elm_slider_value_set()

void elm_slider_value_set	(	Evas_Object *	obj,
		double	val
	)

Set the value the slider displays.

Value will be presented on the unit label following format specified with elm_slider_unit_format_set and on indicator with elm_slider_indicator_format_set.

Note: The value must to be between min and max values. This values are set by elm_slider_min_max_set.

Parameters

[in] val The value to be displayed.

References EINA_DBL_EQ.

◆ elm_slider_value_get()

double elm_slider_value_get ( const Evas_Object * obj )

Get the value displayed by the slider.

Returns: The value to be displayed.

◆ elm_slider_inverted_set()

void elm_slider_inverted_set	(	Evas_Object *	obj,
		Eina_Bool	inverted
	)

Invert a given slider widget's displaying values order.

A slider may be inverted, in which state it gets its values inverted, with high vales 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 horizontal and vertical modes.

Parameters

[in] inverted Use true to make obj inverted, false to bring it back to default, non-inverted values.

◆ elm_slider_inverted_get()

Eina_Bool elm_slider_inverted_get ( const Evas_Object * obj )

Get whether a given slider widget's displaying values are inverted or not.

Returns: Use true to make obj inverted, false to bring it back to default, non-inverted values.

References EINA_FALSE.

◆ elm_slider_span_size_set()

void elm_slider_span_size_set	(	Evas_Object *	obj,
		Evas_Coord	size
	)

Set the (exact) length of the bar region of a given slider widget.

This sets the minimum width (when in horizontal mode) or height (when in vertical mode) of the actual bar area of the slider obj. 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.

Note: Icon, end, label, indicator and unit text around obj will require their own space, which will make obj to require more the size, actually.

Parameters

[in] size The length of the slider's bar region.

◆ elm_slider_span_size_get()
