Detailed Description

The Slider Widget.

QwtSlider is a slider widget which operates on an interval of type double. Its position is related to a scale showing the current value.

The slider can be customized by having a through, a groove - or both.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ ScalePosition

Position of the scale

See also
QwtSlider(), setScalePosition(), setOrientation()
Enumerator
NoScale 

The slider has no scale.

LeadingScale 

The scale is right of a vertical or below a horizontal slider.

TrailingScale 

The scale is left of a vertical or above a horizontal slider.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QwtSlider() [1/2]

QwtSlider::QwtSlider ( QWidget *  parent = NULL)
explicit

Construct vertical slider in QwtSlider::Trough style with a scale to the left.

The scale is initialized to [0.0, 100.0] and the value set to 0.0.

Parameters
parentParent widget
See also
setOrientation(), setScalePosition(), setBackgroundStyle()

◆ QwtSlider() [2/2]

QwtSlider::QwtSlider ( Qt::Orientation  orientation,
QWidget *  parent = NULL 
)
explicit

Construct a slider in QwtSlider::Trough style

When orientation is Qt::Vertical the scale will be aligned to the left - otherwise at the the top of the slider.

The scale is initialized to [0.0, 100.0] and the value set to 0.0.

Parameters
parentParent widget
orientationOrientation of the slider.
