After seconds and seconds of thinking I came up with a quick easy-to-use solution. You can download the source .ged here.

Hope it helps.

Yes, the one of yours is much better. But I only did the one of mine in about 5 minutes, just to demonstrate the basic idea. I noticed that you had the same problem while adding 'Mouse Button Down' event to the "slider-knob" actor as you can't use empty script. But instead of your "x=x;" I used a comment "//no script"

Maybe Makslane could add a "draggable" actor property. If checked (or set to TRUE in script), the actor would be draggable. If unchecked (or set to FALSE), it wouldn't be draggable. Then maybe som new events, like "Drag" and "Drop". That would be neat.

Hi ondy1985.

Yeah. I like the idea of programming re-usable "modules".

On create sliderBacking you set the faders minimum value, maximum value and value. The rest takes care of itself.

To read the value simply use sliderTextValue.value.

Have a great day mate.

jazz_e_bob: How do you locate it anywhere on the screen?

[jazz_e_bob]

Unlock the parts and move the backing to where you want the slider to be.

( right-mouse click unlock )

My brother does a lot of programing in C++. He made a simpler slider program: http://bubble.worth.id.au/~joshua/Game%20Editor/Jslider.zip
