Yet another slider component

Posted on January 16, 2005 by keith

I needed a slider component that I could give away. Tougher problem than you might think. The ones I used on a day to day basis I made myself, but are now part of a commercial set of components that I am not at liberty to hand out free. But in my experiments on BIT-101, I often want to include a slider to allow users to fool around with stuff. And those experiments are open source, meaning that if I include a component, it’s up for grabs.
Well, it wasn’t too much of a problem. I’ve made so many damn components by now, that they come pretty easy. I even made and offered up a few other slider components. But I’m not sure where they are, and I felt I could do better now anyway. So, I sat down and made this one in just over an hour. Basic Slider Component
Like the name says, it’s pretty basic. No frills. Vertical only. I’m including the swc, fla and class file. Merry Christmas.

    public static var symbolName:String=”Slider”;
    public static var symbolOwner:Object=Slider;
    public var className:String=”Slider”;
