The jSlider
control is analogous the .Net Compact Framework's TrackBar, but has a much more rich appearance, and a few additional features.
The CornerRadii
property sets the shape of the 4 corners of both the thumb and the track together when the Shape Property is Rectangular
. Each corner can be set independently.
The Orientation
property can be used to display the slider horizontally or vertically.
The Minimum
property sets the lower bound of the Value property.
The Maximum
property sets the upper bound of the Value property.
The Shape
property can be used to select the overall shape of the slider: Rectangular
or Round
The Thumb
property is used to customize the appearance of the slider's thumb (a.k.a handle). It uses the same features described in Fills, Strokes, and Borders and Highlights and Gloss.
The Width
property sets the width of the thumb. It is only applicable if the Shape Property is set to Rectangular
.
The Track
property is used to customize the appearance of the track that the thumb slides along. It uses the same features described in Fills, Strokes, and Borders and Highlights and Gloss.
As the name implies, the Width
property can be used to set the width of the track.
The Text
property is a .Net format string that specifies the text to display on the thumb. The only argument, {0}
, is the value of the Value Property.
jSlider
employs the same text features used by many of the other controls in the jControls CF35 library including ForeColor
, TextOffset
, TextAlignment
, and TextWrap
. See Text Features for more information.
The Value
property gets or sets the position of the slider. An exception will be thrown if attempting to set it outside of the range specified by the Minimum property and the Maximum property.
The ValueChanged
event fires any time the Value property changes, and can therefore be used to respond to the operator moving the slider.
