Qt Value Slider

This repository contains two new widgets that allow the user to better control decimal and integer values. The widget layout is inspired by Blender.

Dependencies

• Qt >6
• CMake 3.5

Features

• Drag left/right to decrease/increase the value.
• Click to manually enter a value.
• Displays both the name of the slider and the value.
• Name is customizable.
• Slider can be initialized with bounds. Enforcing of these bounds is optional.
• Integer and double slider support: IntSlider and DoubleSlider.

Usage

The value sliders can easily be integrated into your project. Start by cloning the repository:

git clone git@github.com:BugelNiels/qt-value-slider.git

Provided that you cloned this within your project, you should be able to easily add this to any existing CMake projects:

add_subdirectory(qt-value-slider)

target_link_libraries(${PROJECT_NAME} PUBLIC valueSliders)

Alternatively, you can copy-paste the files directly into your project.

Note that due to the fact that the sliders are based on QProgressBar, setting/getting the values should be done using getVal() and setVal() respectively (and not setValue()!).

Compilation

To compile the library, execute the following:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make

To run the demo, you can temporarily change set(SLIDER_LIBRARY ON) in the CMakeLists.txt to OFF. This will allow you to generate a valueSliders binary.
