The slider widget represents an integer value as a point on a sliding scale. You can use
the VIEW-AS phrase to set up a static slider. You can use the
CREATE widget statement to create a dynamic slider. For
example:
Notes
- Only
a value of the INTEGER or INT64 data type can be viewed as a slider.
If using INT64, the value must remain within the -2147483648 to
+2147483647 range.
- In character interfaces, a slider widget has a minimum width
that is dependent on the specified maximum value (MAX-VALUE attribute). The
minimum height for a slider widget in a character interface is 2
character units. You can specify a value as low as 1.5 character
units for the height of a slider in a character interface; however,
ABL rounds the value up to 2 character units.
