Tips
Flexible Bounds
A normal slider can just be defined for a constant interval, i.e. the interval can't be influenced by worksheet variables. But sometimes it's necessary to create a slider for the user with flexible bounds, let's say from a to b. That's not possible directly, but one can achieve a similar effect:
- Create a slider t in the interval [0, 1]
- Use interpolation to calculate the "real value" c (in the interval [a, b]):
c = a + (b - a) * t
- Hide the label of the slider
- Place a text object with the content
"c = " + c
at the old label's position
Such a slider works almost exactly like the normal one (exception: the label isn't moving, that needs some additional work), so your users probably won't notice.
