.SH DESCRIPTION
The QSlider widget provides a vertical or horizontal slider.
.PP
The slider is the classic widget for controlling a bounded value. It lets the user move a slider along a horizontal or vertical groove and translates the slider's position into an integer value within the legal range.
.PP
QSlider inherits QRangeControl, which provides the "integer" side of the slider. setRange() and value() are likely to be used by practically all slider users; see the QRangeControl documentation for information about the many other functions that class provides.
.PP
The main functions offered by the slider itself are tickmark and orientation control; you can use setTickmarks() to indicate where you want the tickmarks to be, setTickInterval() to indicate how many of them you want and setOrientation() to indicate whether the slider is to be horizontal or vertical.
.PP
A slider accepts focus on Tab and uses the mouse wheel and a suitable keyboard interface.

.SS "Member Type Documentation"
.SH "QSlider::TickSetting"
This enum specifies where the tickmarks are to be drawn relative to the slider's groove and the handle the user moves.
.TP
\fCQSlider::NoMarks\fR - do not draw any tickmarks.
.TP
\fCQSlider::Both\fR - draw tickmarks on both sides of the groove.
.TP
\fCQSlider::Above\fR - draw tickmarks above the (horizontal) slider
.TP
\fCQSlider::Below\fR - draw tickmarks below the (horizontal) slider
.TP
\fCQSlider::Left\fR - draw tickmarks to the left of the (vertical) slider
.TP
\fCQSlider::Right\fR - draw tickmarks to the right of the (vertical) slider
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
.SH "QSlider::QSlider ( TQWidget * parent, const char * name = 0 )"
Constructs a vertical slider.
.PP
The \fIparent\fR and \fIname\fR arguments are sent on to the TQWidget constructor.
.SH "QSlider::QSlider ( Orientation orientation, TQWidget * parent, const char * name = 0 )"
Constructs a slider.
.PP
The \fIorientation\fR must be Qt::Vertical or Qt::Horizontal.

.SH "QSlider::QSlider ( int minValue, int maxValue, int pageStep, int value, Orientation orientation, TQWidget * parent, const char * name = 0 )"
Constructs a slider whose value can never be smaller than \fIminValue\fR or greater than \fImaxValue\fR, whose page step size is \fIpageStep\fR and whose value is initially \fIvalue\fR (which is guaranteed to be in range using bound()).
.PP
If \fIorientation\fR is Qt::Vertical the slider is vertical and if it is Qt::Horizontal the slider is horizontal.

.SH "void QRangeControl::setRange ( int minValue, int maxValue )"
Sets the range control's minimum value to \fIminValue\fR and its maximum value to \fImaxValue\fR.
.PP
Calls the virtual rangeChange() function if one or both of the new minimum and maximum values are different from the previous setting. Calls the virtual valueChange() function if the current value is adjusted because it was outside the new range.
.PP
If \fImaxValue\fR is smaller than \fIminValue\fR, \fIminValue\fR becomes the only legal value.
.PP

.SS "Property Documentation"
.SH "int lineStep"
This property holds the current line step.
.PP
When setting lineStep, the virtual stepChange() function will be called if the new line step is different from the previous setting.
.PP
See also setSteps(), QRangeControl::pageStep(), and setRange().
.PP
Set this property's value with setLineStep() and get this property's value with lineStep().
.SH "int maxValue"
This property holds the current maximum value of the slider.
.PP
When setting this property, the QSlider::minValue is adjusted, if necessary, to ensure that the range remains valid.
.PP
See also setRange().
.PP
Set this property's value with setMaxValue() and get this property's value with maxValue().
.SH "int minValue"
This property holds the current minimum value of the slider.
.PP
When setting this property, the QSlider::maxValue is adjusted, if necessary, to ensure that the range remains valid.
.PP
See also setRange().
.PP
Set this property's value with setMinValue() and get this property's value with minValue().
.SH "Orientation orientation"
This property holds the slider's orientation.
.PP
The orientation must be Qt::Vertical (the default) or Qt::Horizontal.
.PP
Set this property's value with setOrientation() and get this property's value with orientation().
.SH "int pageStep"
This property holds the current page step.
.PP
When setting pageStep, the virtual stepChange() function will be called if the new page step is different from the previous setting.
.PP
See also QRangeControl::setSteps(), lineStep, and setRange().
.PP
Set this property's value with setPageStep() and get this property's value with pageStep().
.SH "int tickInterval"
This property holds the interval between tickmarks.
.PP
This is a value interval, not a pixel interval. If it is 0, the slider will choose between lineStep() and pageStep(). The initial value of tickInterval is 0.

See also QRangeControl::lineStep() and QRangeControl::pageStep().
.PP
Set this property's value with setTickInterval() and get this property's value with tickInterval().

Set this property's value with setTickmarks() and get this property's value with tickmarks().
.SH "bool tracking"
This property holds whether slider tracking is enabled.
.PP
If tracking is enabled (the default), the slider emits the valueChanged() signal whenever the slider is being dragged. If tracking is disabled, the slider emits the valueChanged() signal when the user releases the mouse button (unless the value happens to be the same as before).
.PP
Set this property's value with setTracking() and get this property's value with tracking().
