Scroll bar

Scroll bar is used to represent a value on a finite range. It has a thumb that shows the current value on on the bar. Usually it is used in pair with ScrollPanel to create something like ScrollViewer widget. However, it could also be used to create sliders to show some value that lies within some range.

Example

A simple example of how to create a new ScrollBar could be something like this:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
extern crate fyrox;
use fyrox::gui::{
    core::pool::Handle, scroll_bar::ScrollBarBuilder, widget::WidgetBuilder, BuildContext,
    UiNode,
};
fn create_scroll_bar(ctx: &mut BuildContext) -> Handle<UiNode> {
    ScrollBarBuilder::new(WidgetBuilder::new())
        .with_min(0.0)
        .with_max(200.0)
        .with_value(123.0)
        .build(ctx)
}
}

It creates a horizontal scroll bar with 123.0 value and a range of [0.0..200.0]. To fetch the new value of the scroll bar, use ScrollBarMessage::Value message:

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
extern crate fyrox;
use fyrox::gui::{
    core::pool::Handle,
    message::{MessageDirection, UiMessage},
    scroll_bar::ScrollBarMessage,
    UiNode,
};
fn foo(scroll_bar: Handle<UiNode>, message: &mut UiMessage) {
if message.destination() == scroll_bar
    && message.direction() == MessageDirection::FromWidget
{
    if let Some(ScrollBarMessage::Value(value)) = message.data() {
        println!("{}", value);
    }
}
}
}

Please note, that you need to explicitly filter messages by MessageDirection::FromWidget, because it's the only direction that is used as an "indicator" that the value was accepted by the scroll bar.

Orientation

Scroll bar could be either horizontal (default) or vertical. You can select the orientation when building a scroll bar using ScrollBarBuilder::with_orientation method and provide a desired value from Orientation enum there.

Show values

By default, scroll bar does not show its actual value, you can turn it on using ScrollBarBuilder::show_value method with true as the first argument. To change rounding of the value, use ScrollBarBuilder::with_value_precision and provide the desired amount of decimal places there.

Step

Scroll bar provides arrows to change the current value using a fixed step value. You can change it using ScrollBarBuilder::with_step method.
