    Default Slider with two "sliders"

    I have a range of values, e.g. 0.0 - 30.0. I want to display data from a subrange set by the user. What I want is a vertical slider with a user defined start and a user defined end. I.e. I want the user to be able to set a range 0.0 - 10.0 or 8.0 - 30.0 and so on.

    Does anyone have a good suggestion to how I can accomplish this? I would really like a slider with two value-sliders, but will maybe have to put the two beside eachother and actively set a restrained range. But this is not beautiful.

    I could use spinboxes, but the range is adjusting a paint-procedure, so it would seem somewhat undynamic.

    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.

    Thanks, for the reply. I will look into that, but in essence, was that exactly what I wanted, and I conclude that Qt itself has not this functionality built in.

    I will have to see if I want to drag another 3rd party into my project for that functionality alone.
