[Feature Request] Sliders, start values #4

Open meilon opened 11 years ago

meilon commented 11 years ago

Hi there,

I'm going to start a project with piui and for some settings I need sliders. Could you add them in the near future? Also, how do I set start values for text boxes, toggles and the (hopefully soon added) sliders?

rgegriff commented 11 years ago

You can use sliders right now, actually. Just use an input with type set to "range", I also have a branch that I am working on that adds an extra arguments to the inputs, I will make a pull request soon and hopefully @dps will integrate it.

Thanks for the "range" tip, do you have an example for me how to catch the changed value? And how to setup a start value? Or will this be in your pull request?

rgegriff commented 11 years ago

You can capture it the same way as if it was a text input. You can test that by changing the input on line 43(?) of the demo to "range". As for the start value, what's needed is a way to set the "value", "min", "max", and "step" arguments of the input element. That is what my patch is going to address. I would work on it now, but I am hella tired.

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate this! I hoped there was a way like with the toggles (directly after I change a value, the server gets notified and I could do stuff with the new value) but until this item gets an event handler I added a button to send those values. I hope your patch comes soon!

A little offtopic but I don't where else to ask: How do I make a list for just selecting a value, like a list of presets. Generating the list with an item with a chevron linking to another page is easy, but how do I make the preset list work? It should look like the list for selecting a ringtone on an iPhone.

Hi, tekromancer, did you get anywhere with the patch you were doing?

rgegriff commented 11 years ago

I did, but I managed to fry my pi back in may and I haven't had the funds to get a new one.
