Remarks

A "slider control" (also known as a trackbar) is a window containing a slider and optional tick marks. When the user moves the slider, using either the mouse or the direction keys, the control sends notification messages to indicate the change.

Slider controls are useful when you want the user to select a discrete value or a set of consecutive values in a range. For example, you might use a slider control to allow the user to set the repeat rate of the keyboard by moving the slider to a given tick mark.

This control (and therefore the CSliderCtrl class) is available only to programs running under Windows 95/98 and Windows NT version 3.51 and later.

The slider moves in increments that you specify when you create it. For example, if you specify that the slider should have a range of five, the slider can only occupy six positions: a position at the left side of the slider control and one position for each increment in the range. Typically, each of these positions is identified by a tick mark.

You create a slider by using the constructor and the Create member function of CSliderCtrl. Once you've created a slider control, you can use member functions in CSliderCtrl to change many of its properties. Changes that you can make include setting the minimum and maximum positions for the slider, drawing tick marks, setting a selection range, and repositioning the slider.

Requirements

Header: afxcmn.h

CSliderCtrl::ClearSel

Clears the current selection in a slider control.

void ClearSel(BOOL bRedraw = FALSE);

Parameters

bRedraw
Redraw flag. If this parameter is TRUE, the slider is redrawn after the selection is cleared; otherwise the slider isn't redrawn.

CSliderCtrl::ClearTics

Removes the current tick marks from a slider control.

void ClearTics(BOOL bRedraw = FALSE);

Parameters

bRedraw
Redraw flag. If this parameter is TRUE, the slider is redrawn after the tick marks are cleared; otherwise the slider isn't redrawn.

CSliderCtrl::Create

Creates a slider control and attaches it to a CSliderCtrl object.

virtual BOOL Create(
    DWORD dwStyle,
    const RECT& rect,
    CWnd* pParentWnd,
    UINT nID);

Parameters

dwStyle
Specifies the slider control's style. Apply any combination of slider control styles, described in the Windows SDK, to the control.

rect
Specifies the slider control's size and position. It can be either a CRect object or a RECT structure.

pParentWnd
Specifies the slider control's parent window, usually a CDialog. It must not be NULL.

nID
Specifies the slider control's ID.

Return Value

Nonzero if initialization was successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

You construct a CSliderCtrl in two steps. First, call the constructor, and then call Create, which creates the slider control and attaches it to the CSliderCtrl object.

Depending on the values set for dwStyle, the slider control can have either a vertical or horizontal orientation. It can have tick marks on either side, both sides, or neither. It can also be used to specify a range of consecutive values.

To apply extended window styles to the slider control, call CreateEx instead of Create.

CSliderCtrl::CreateEx

Creates a control (a child window) and associates it with the CSliderCtrl object.

virtual BOOL CreateEx(
    DWORD dwExStyle,
    DWORD dwStyle,
    const RECT& rect,
    CWnd* pParentWnd,
    UINT nID);

Parameters

dwExStyle
Specifies the extended style of the control being created. For a list of extended Windows styles, see the dwExStyle parameter for CreateWindowEx in the Windows SDK.

dwStyle
Specifies the slider control's style. Apply any combination of slider control styles, described in the Windows SDK, to the control.

rect
A reference to a RECT structure describing the size and position of the window to be created, in client coordinates of pParentWnd.

pParentWnd
A pointer to the window that is the control's parent.

nID
The control's child-window ID.

Return Value

Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.

Remarks

Use CreateEx instead of Create to apply extended Windows styles, specified by the Windows extended style preface WS_EX_.

CSliderCtrl::CSliderCtrl

Constructs a CSliderCtrl object.

CSliderCtrl();

CSliderCtrl::GetBuddy

Retrieves the handle to a slider control buddy window at a given location.

CWnd* GetBuddy(BOOL fLocation = TRUE) const;

Parameters

fLocation
A Boolean value that indicates which of two buddy window handles to retrieve. Can be one of the following values:

  • TRUE Retrieves the handle to the buddy to the left of the slider. If the slider control uses the TBS_VERT style, the message will retrieve the buddy above the slider.

  • FALSE Retrieves the handle to the buddy to the right of the slider. If the slider control uses the TBS_VERT style, the message will retrieve the buddy below the slider.

Return Value

A pointer to a CWnd object that is the buddy window at the location specified by fLocation, or NULL if no buddy window exists at that location.

Remarks

This member function implements the behavior of the Win32 message TBM_GETBUDDY, as described in the Windows SDK. For a description of the slider control styles, see Trackbar Control Styles in the Windows SDK.

void SetRangeMax(
    int nMax,
    BOOL bRedraw = FALSE);

Parameters

Sets the minimum range for the slider in a slider control.

void SetRangeMin(
    int nMin,
    BOOL bRedraw = FALSE);

Parameters

nMin

CSliderCtrl::SetThumbLength

Sets the length of the slider in the current trackbar control.

void SetThumbLength(int nLength);

Parameters

nLength
[in] Length of the slider, in pixels.

Remarks

This method requires that the trackbar control be set to TBS_FIXEDLENGTH style.

This method sends the TBM_SETTHUMBLENGTH message, which is described in the Windows SDK.

Example

The first code example defines the variable, m_sliderCtrl, that is used to access the current trackbar control. The example also defines a variable, thumbLength, that is used to store the default length of the trackbar control's thumb component. These variables are used in the next example.

// Variable to access the slider control.
CSliderCtrl m_sliderCtrl;
// Length of the slider control's thumb.
int thumbLength;

The next code example sets the trackbar control's thumb component to twice its default length.

// Add extra initialization.

// Modify the size of the slider control's thumb.
// First, set the TBS_FIXEDLENGTH style.
m_sliderCtrl.ModifyStyle(0, TBS_FIXEDLENGTH);
thumbLength = m_sliderCtrl.GetThumbLength();
m_sliderCtrl.SetThumbLength(thumbLength * 2);

// End extra initialization.

CSliderCtrl::SetTic

Sets the position of a tick mark in a slider control.

BOOL SetTic(int nTic);

Parameters

nTic
Position of the tick mark. This parameter must specify a positive value.

Return Value

Nonzero if the tick mark is set; otherwise 0.

CSliderCtrl::SetTicFreq

Sets the frequency with which tick marks are displayed in a slider.

void SetTicFreq(int nFreq);

Parameters

nFreq
Frequency of the tick marks.

Remarks

For example, if the frequency is set to 2, a tick mark is displayed for every other increment in the slider's range. The default setting for the frequency is 1 (that is, every increment in the range is associated with a tick mark).

You must create the control with the TBS_AUTOTICKS style to use this function. For more information, see CSliderCtrl::Create.

CSliderCtrl::SetTipSide

Positions a tooltip control used by a trackbar control.

int SetTipSide(int nLocation);

Parameters

nLocation
Value representing the location at which to display the tooltip control. For a list of possible values, see the Win32 message TBM_SETTIPSIDE, as described in the Windows SDK.

Return Value

A value that represents the tooltip control's previous location. The return value equals one of the possible values for nLocation.

Remarks

This member function implements the behavior of the Win32 message TBM_SETTIPSIDE, as described in the Windows SDK. Slider controls that use the TBS_TOOLTIPS style display tooltips. For a description of the slider control styles, see Trackbar Control Styles in the Windows SDK.

CSliderCtrl::SetToolTips

Assigns a tooltip control to a slider control.

void SetToolTips(CToolTipCtrl* pWndTip);

Parameters

pWndTip
A pointer to a CToolTipCtrl object containing the tooltips to use with the slider control.

Remarks

This member function implements the behavior of the Win32 message TBM_SETTOOLTIPS, as described in the Windows SDK. When a slider control is created with the TBS_TOOLTIPS style, it creates a default tooltip control that appears next to the slider, displaying the slider's current position. For a description of the slider control styles, see Trackbar Control Styles in the Windows SDK.
