Slider Enhancements #24

Open DanielArnett opened 8 years ago

DanielArnett commented 8 years ago

The sliders are functional but leave room for improvement. Here are my suggestions.

  1. Don't have the numerical input (text box on the right) over top of the slider.
  2. Disable the scroll wheel for fine tuning. The scroll wheel should scroll.
  3. When the user enters text into the text box only move the slider when the user hits enter. Don't update the slider every time the user presses any number. This makes entering numbers very tedious.
  4. Let the user hold alt/shift/whatever to perform fine mouse movements. This would make setting precise values very easy on the sliders.

For a full critique and an example of the best slider I've ever used, see this video here.

Hi Daniel, thanks for the input, i'm currently working on some new U.I Design for Omnidome and will take this into consideration. It should already be possible to move the sliders in smaller increments by holding shift and using the arrow keys, please let us know if that's not working as it should for you.
