public class WSlider extends WFormWidget
A horizontal or vertical slider control.

A slider allows the user to specify an integer value within a particular range using a visual slider.

The slider must be sized explicitly using resize() or by a layout manager. The default size is 150 x 50 pixels for a horizontal slider, and 50 x 150 pixels for a vertical slider.

Horizontal slider with ticks on both sides.

CSS

The non-native slider (HTML4, see setNativeControl()) is styled by the current CSS theme.

  • Constructor Details

    • WSlider

      public WSlider(WContainerWidget parentContainer)
      Creates a default horizontal slider.

      The slider shows no ticks, has a range from 0 to 99, and has tickInterval of 0 (defaulting to three ticks over the whole range).

      The initial value is 0.

    • WSlider

      public WSlider()
      Creates a default horizontal slider.

      Calls this((WContainerWidget)null)

    • WSlider

      public WSlider(Orientation orientation, WContainerWidget parentContainer)
      Creates a default slider of the given orientation.

      The slider shows no ticks, has a range from 0 to 99, and has tickInterval of 0 (defaulting to three ticks over the whole range).

      The initial value is 0.

    • WSlider

      public WSlider(Orientation orientation)
      Creates a default slider of the given orientation.

      Calls this(orientation, (WContainerWidget)null)

    • setNativeControl

      public void setNativeControl(boolean nativeControl)
      Configures whether a native HTML5 control should be used.

      When native, the new "range" input element, specified by HTML5 and when implemented by the browser, is used rather than the built-in element. A native control is styled by the browser (usually in sync with the OS) rather than through the theme chosen. Settings like tick interval and tick position are ignored.

      Note: Vertically oriented sliders are in theory supported by the HTML5 input element, but in practice are usually not rendered correctly by the browser.

    • isNativeControl

      public boolean isNativeControl()
      Returns whether a native HTML5 control is used.

      Taking into account the preference for a native control, configured using setNativeControl(), this method returns whether a native control is actually being used.

    • setOrientation

      public void setOrientation(Orientation orientation)
      Sets the slider orientation.

      See Also:

    • getOrientation

      public Orientation getOrientation()
      Returns the slider orientation.

      See Also:

    • setTickInterval

      public void setTickInterval(int tickInterval)
      Sets the tick interval.

      The tick interval specifies the interval for placing ticks along the slider. The interval is specified in value units (not pixel units). A value of 0 specifies an automatic tick interval, which defaults to 3 ticks spanning the whole range.

      See Also:

    • getTickInterval

      public int getTickInterval()
      Returns the tick interval.

      See Also:

    • setTickPosition

      public void setTickPosition(EnumSet<WSlider.TickPosition> tickPosition)
      Sets the tick position.

      The tick position indicates if and where ticks are placed around the slider groove.

      This function has no effect if the native widget is used.

      See Also:

    • setTickPosition

      public final void setTickPosition(WSlider.TickPosition tickPositio, WSlider.TickPosition... tickPosition)
      Sets the tick position.

      Calls setTickPosition(EnumSet.of(tickPositio, tickPosition))

    • getTickPosition

      public EnumSet<WSlider.TickPosition> getTickPosition()
      Returns the tick position.

      See Also:

    • setTickLength

      public void setTickLength(WLength length)
      Sets the length of the ticks to be drawn.

      This length will be either the width or height when the slider is oriented vertically or horizontally respectively.

      This function has no effect if the native widget is used.

      See Also:

    • getTickLength

      public WLength getTickLength()
      Returns the tick length.

      See Also:

    • setValue

      public void setValue(int value)
      Sets the slider value.

      The value is automatically trimmed to the valid range (getMinimum() to getMaximum()).

      See Also:

    • getValue

      public int getValue()
      Returns the current slider value.

      See Also:

    • setMaximum

      public void setMaximum(int maximum)
      Sets the maximum value.

      The maximum value defines the upper limit of the valid range. The lower limit and current value are automatically adjusted to remain valid.

      See Also:

    • getMaximum

      public int getMaximum()
      Returns the maximum value.

      See Also:

    • setMinimum

      public void setMinimum(int minimum)
      Sets the minimum value.

      The minimum value defines the lower limit of the valid range. The upper limit and current value are automatically adjusted to remain valid.

      See Also:

    • getMinimum

      public int getMinimum()
      Returns the minimum value.

      See Also:

    • setRange

      public void setRange(int minimum, int maximum)
      Sets the value range.

      See Also:

    • getStep

      public int getStep()
      Return the step value.

      The default value of the step is 1.

      See Also:

    • setStep

      public void setStep(int step)
      Sets the step value.

      This is a positive integer value that indicates by which step the slider moves between the minimum and maximum.

      It is not necessary that the slider's range can be neatly divided by the step value. Meaning a range of 50 (0 - 50), with a step of 7, is possible, but will never reach the maximum value.

      See Also:

    • valueChanged

      public Signal1<Integer> valueChanged()
      Signal emitted when the user has changed the value of the slider.

      The new value is passed as the argument.

      See Also:

    • sliderMoved

      public JSignal1<Integer> sliderMoved()
      Signal emitted while the user drags the slider.

      The current dragged position is passed as the argument. Note that the slider value is not changed while dragging the slider, but only after the slider has been released.

      See Also:

    • setHandleWidth

      public void setHandleWidth(int handleWidth)
      Sets the slider handle width.

      This sets the width for the handle, which is needed to accurately position the handle.

      The default value is 20 pixels.

    • getHandleWidth

      public int getHandleWidth()
      Returns the handle width.

      See Also:

    • input

      public EventSignal input()
      Signal emitted when input was captured.

      The signal is only emitted when keyboard input (arrow keys) are captured.

    • setDisabled

      public void setDisabled(boolean disabled)
      Description copied from class: WWidget
      Sets whether the widget is disabled.

      Enables or disables the widget (including all its descendant widgets). setDisabled(false) will enable this widget and all descendant widgets that are not disabled. A widget is only enabled if it and all its ancestors in the widget tree are disabled.

      Typically, a disabled form widget will not allow changing the value, and disabled widgets will not react to mouse click events.

      Overrides:
      setDisabled in class WWebWidget
      See Also:

    • resize

      public void resize(WLength width, WLength height)
      Description copied from class: WWidget
      Resizes the widget.

      Specifies a fixed size for this widget, setting CSS width and height properties. By default a widget has automatic width and height, which sets a size for the widget following CSS rules.

      When the widget is not managed by a layout manager, the automatic (natural) size of a widget depends on whether they widget is a block or inline widget:

      • a block widget takes by default the width of the parent, and the height that it needs based on its contents
      • an inline widget takes the width and height that it needs based on its contents (possibly wrapping over multiple lines). The width and height of an inline widget cannot be changed (by the letter of CSS, although most browsers will react to it in varying ways).

      When inserted in a layout manager, the size set will be used as a widget's preferred size, but the widget may be given a different size by the layout manager based on available space and stretch factors. The actual size given by a layout manager may be retrieved by making the widget "layout size aware", using setLayoutSizeAware(). If you have defined a "wtResize()" JavaScript method for the widget, then this method will also be called.

      The default width and height of a widget is WLength.Auto.

      Overrides:
      resize in class WWebWidget
      See Also:

    • getValueText

      public String getValueText()
      Description copied from class: WFormWidget
      Returns the current value.

      This returns the current value as a string.

      Specified by:
      getValueText in class WFormWidget

    • setValueText

      public void setValueText(String value)
      Description copied from class: WFormWidget
      Sets the value text.

      This sets the current value from a string value.

      Specified by:
      setValueText in class WFormWidget

    • enableAjax

      public void enableAjax()
      Description copied from class: WWidget
      Progresses to an Ajax-enabled widget.

      This method is called when the progressive bootstrap method is used, and support for AJAX has been detected. The default behavior will upgrade the widget's event handling to use AJAX instead of full page reloads, and propagate the call to its children.

      You may want to reimplement this method if you want to make changes to widget when AJAX is enabled. You should always call the base implementation.

      Overrides:
      enableAjax in class WFormWidget
      See Also:

    • paintTick

      protected void paintTick(WPainter painter, int value, int x, int y)
      Paints a slider ticks (for a non-native widget)

      The default implementation draws ticks taking into account the the tickPosition.

      The mid point for the tick should be at position (x, y). The value that corresponds to the tick is also passed.

    • getCreateHandle

      protected WInteractWidget getCreateHandle()
      Creates the handle (for a non-native widget)

      The default implementation creates a container widget. You may want to specialize this function if you want to have more control on the handle appearance or if you want to associate with the handle a tooltip or other information (e.g. a popup balloon).

    • layoutSizeChanged

      protected void layoutSizeChanged(int width, int height)
      Description copied from class: WWidget
      Virtual method that indicates a size change.

      This method propagates the client-side width and height of the widget when the widget is contained by a layout manager and setLayoutSizeAware(true) was called.

      Overrides:
      layoutSizeChanged in class WWidget
      See Also:

    • render

      protected void render(EnumSet<RenderFlag> flags)
      Description copied from class: WWidget
      Renders the widget.

      This function renders the widget (or an update for the widget), after this has been scheduled using scheduleRender().

      The default implementation will render the widget by serializing changes to JavaScript and HTML. You may want to reimplement this widget if you have been postponing some of the layout / rendering implementation until the latest moment possible. In that case you should make sure you call the base implementation however.

      Overrides:
      render in class WFormWidget

    • setFormData

      protected void setFormData(WObject.FormData formData)
      Overrides:
      setFormData in class WObject
