Setting the Maximum Value of a Slider Widget

QUESTION: How can I change the maximum (or minimum) value of a slider widget after it is created?

ANSWER: You can change the maximum (or minimum) value of a slider widget after it has been realized by using the Set_Slider_Max (or Set_Slider_Min) keyword to the Widget_Control command:

   sliderID = Widget_Slider(tlb, Value=50, Min=0, Max=100)
   Widget_Control, sliderID, Set_Slider_Max=200
   Widget_Control, sliderID, Set_Slider_Min=50
   Widget_Control, slider, Set_Value=75
