Class Slider

javafx.scene.control.Slider

All Implemented Interfaces:: Styleable, EventTarget, Skinnable

public class Slider extends Control

The Slider Control is used to display a continuous or discrete range of valid numeric choices and allows the user to interact with the control. It is typically represented visually as having a "track" and a "knob" or "thumb" which is dragged within the track. The Slider can optionally show tick marks and labels indicating the different slider position values.

The three fundamental variables of the slider are min, max, and value. The value should always be a number within the range defined by min and max. min should always be less than or equal to max (although a slider whose min and max are equal is a degenerate case that makes no sense). min defaults to 0, whereas max defaults to 100.

This first example creates a slider whose range, or span, goes from 0 to 1, and whose value defaults to .5:

 Slider slider = new Slider(0, 1, 0.5);

This next example shows a slider with customized tick marks and tick mark labels, which also spans from 0 to 1:

 Slider slider = new Slider(0, 1, 0.5);
 slider.setShowTickMarks(true);
 slider.setShowTickLabels(true);
 slider.setMajorTickUnit(0.25f);
 slider.setBlockIncrement(0.1f);

Since:: JavaFX 2.0

Property Details

max

public final DoubleProperty maxProperty

The maximum value represented by this Slider. This must be a value greater than min.

See Also:

min

public final DoubleProperty minProperty

The minimum value represented by this Slider. This must be a value less than max.

See Also:

value

public final DoubleProperty valueProperty

The current value represented by this Slider. This value must always be between min and max, inclusive. If it is ever out of bounds either due to min or max changing or due to itself being changed, then it will be clamped to always remain valid.

See Also:

valueChanging

public final BooleanProperty valueChangingProperty

When true, indicates the current value of this Slider is changing. It provides notification that the value is changing. Once the value is computed, it is reset back to false.

See Also:

orientation

public final ObjectProperty<Orientation> orientationProperty

The orientation of the Slider can either be horizontal or vertical.

See Also:

showTickLabels

public final BooleanProperty showTickLabelsProperty

Indicates that the labels for tick marks should be shown. Typically a Skin implementation will only show labels if showTickMarks is also true.

See Also:

showTickMarks

public final BooleanProperty showTickMarksProperty

Specifies whether the Skin implementation should show tick marks.

See Also:

majorTickUnit

public final DoubleProperty majorTickUnitProperty

The unit distance between major tick marks. For example, if the min is 0 and the max is 100 and the majorTickUnit is 25, then there would be 5 tick marks: one at position 0, one at position 25, one at position 50, one at position 75, and a final one at position 100.

This value should be positive and should be a value less than the span. Out of range values are essentially the same as disabling tick marks.

See Also:

minorTickCount

public final IntegerProperty minorTickCountProperty

The number of minor ticks to place between any two major ticks. This number should be positive or zero. Out of range values will disable disable minor ticks, as will a value of zero.

See Also:

public final BooleanProperty snapToTicksProperty

Indicates whether the value of the Slider should always be aligned with the tick marks. This is honored even if the tick marks are not shown.

See Also:

labelFormatter

public final ObjectProperty<StringConverter<Double>> labelFormatterProperty

A function for formatting the label for a major tick. The number representing the major tick will be passed to the function. If this function is not specified, then a default function will be used by the Skin implementation.

See Also:

blockIncrement

public final DoubleProperty blockIncrementProperty

The amount by which to adjust the slider if the track of the slider is clicked. This is used when manipulating the slider position using keys. If snapToTicks is true then the nearest tick mark to the adjusted value will be used.
