12 A slider is a control with a handle which can be pulled back and forth to
13 change the value.
7c913512 14
23324ae1 15 On Windows, the track bar control is used.
7c913512 16
23324ae1 17 Slider events are handled in the same way as a scrollbar.

44 You can use EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL... macros with window IDs for when intercepting
45 scroll events from controls, or EVT_SCROLL... macros without window IDs for
46 intercepting scroll events from the receiving window -- except for this,
47 the macros behave exactly the same.
48 @event{EVT_SCROLL(func)}
49 Process all scroll events.
50 @event{EVT_SCROLL_TOP(func)}

62 @event{EVT_SCROLL_THUMBTRACK(func)}
63 Process wxEVT_SCROLL_THUMBTRACK thumbtrack events
64 (frequent events sent as the user drags the thumbtrack).
65 @event{EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE(func)}
66 Process wxEVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE thumb release events.
67 @event{EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED(func)}
68 Process wxEVT_SCROLL_CHANGED end of scrolling events (MSW only).
69 @event{EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL(id, func)}
70 Process all scroll events.
71 @event{EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL_TOP(id, func)}
72 Process wxEVT_SCROLL_TOP scroll-to-top events (minimum position).
73 @event{EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL_BOTTOM(id, func)}

85 (frequent events sent as the user drags the thumbtrack).
86 @event{EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE(func)}
87 Process wxEVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE thumb release events.
88 @event{EVT_COMMAND_SCROLL_CHANGED(func)}
89 Process wxEVT_SCROLL_CHANGED end of scrolling events (MSW only).

92 @section slider_diff The difference between EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED
93
94 The EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event is only emitted when actually dragging the
95 thumb using the mouse and releasing it (This EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event
96 is also followed by an EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event).
97
98 The EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event also occurs when using the keyboard to change
99 the thumb position, and when clicking next to the thumb
100 (In all these cases the EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE event does not happen).
101 In short, the EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED event is triggered when scrolling/ moving
102 has finished independently of the way it had started.
103 Please see the widgets sample ("Slider" page) to see the difference between
104 EVT_SCROLL_THUMBRELEASE and EVT_SCROLL_CHANGED in action.
