## Detailed Description

A Base class for sliders.

QwtSliderBase is a base class for slider widgets. QwtSliderBase handles the mouse events and updates the slider's value accordingly. Derived classes only have to implement the getValue() and getScrollMode() members, and should react to a valueChange(), which normally requires repainting.

## Member Function Documentation

void QwtSliderBase::fitValue | ( | double | val | ) | `[virtual, slot]`

| Set the slider's value to the nearest integer multiple of the step size. See also: QwtSliderBase::setValue() Reimplemented from QwtDblRange. Definition at line 519 of file qwt_sldbase.cpp. References QwtDblRange::fitValue(), and stopMoving().

virtual void QwtSliderBase::getScrollMode | ( | const QPoint & | p,
|  | int & | scrollMode,
|  | int & | direction
| ) | `[protected, pure virtual]`

  | Determine what to do when the user presses a mouse button. This function is abstract and has to be implemented by derived classes. It is called on a mousePress event. The derived class can determine what should happen next in dependence of the position where the mouse was pressed by returning scrolling mode and direction. QwtSliderBase knows the following modes: QwtSliderBase::ScrNone Scrolling switched off. Don't change the value. QwtSliderBase::ScrMouse Change the value while the user keeps the button pressed and moves the mouse. QwtSliderBase::ScrTimer Automatic scrolling. Increment the value in the specified direction as long as the user keeps the button pressed. QwtSliderBase::ScrPage Automatic scrolling. Same as ScrTimer, but increment by page size. Parameters:
  | p | point where the mouse was pressed
  Return values:
  | scrollMode | The scrolling mode
  | direction | direction: 1, 0, or -1.
Implemented in QwtDial, QwtSlider, and QwtWheel. Referenced by mousePressEvent(), and wheelEvent().

virtual double QwtSliderBase::getValue | ( | const QPoint & | p | ) | `[protected, pure virtual]`

  | Determine the value corresponding to a specified poind. This is an abstract virtual function which is called when the user presses or releases a mouse button or moves the mouse. It has to be implemented by the derived class. Parameters:
