Hi everyone,
I have developed a GUI on the 6.0 Windows version of IDL, and I am now
in the process of porting it to a UNIX machine. Most everything looks
fine, because I developed the code to be platform-independent, but the
one problem I have is with the slider bars. In windows, the sliders
have small arrow buttons on each side so that a user can click one
value at a time through the slider (dragging is also possible). But on
UNIX, the only way to change the slider value appears to be to actually
drag the slider. This is creating a problem for me with slider bars
which have a very large number of values (i.e. if there are 200 values
in the slider, by dragging I can never hit certain values, because it
only stops every few values). Is there a way to get the side arrows
working on UNIX?
Thanks a lot,
Leslie Welser
