    I am trying to add a configuration slider to my config window. I can get the slider to show, but cannot figure how to show the text version of the slider position. The slider shows up in my config widow and i am able to slide it but I want to show the numeric value of the slider position in a box below the slider.

    Any help would be very wonderful

    Thanks

    Are you using any library to provide your config interface or are you writing it yourself?

    I have a config.lua and config.xml that I wrote. I haven't used any libraries for the config panel. The config panel has been working with just radio buttons, but i need to add a way for the user to input a numeric limit.

    This puts the slider in the config panel. do i need to add a separate text box for the number display? or is there one that is tied to the slider?

    XML Code: `

        <Slider name="$parentMaxiLvLSlider" inherits="OptionsSliderTemplate">
        <Size>
            <AbsDimension x="440" y="20"/>
        </Size>
        <Anchors>
            <Anchor point="TOPLEFT" relativeTo="$parentCheckButtonSoulbound">
            <Offset><AbsDimension x="0" y="-40"/></Offset>
            </Anchor>
        </Anchors>
        <Scripts>
            <OnLoad>
                getglobal(self:GetName().."Text"):SetText("iLvL sell below");
                getglobal(self:GetName().."High"):SetText("509");
                getglobal(self:GetName().."Low"):SetText("0");
                self:SetMinMaxValues(0,509);
                self:SetValueStep(1);
            </OnLoad>

        </Scripts>
    </Slider>

    `

    Thank in Advance

    Hope this helps:

    My XML code is

        <Frames>
        <Slider name="CashProfitSlider" inherits="OptionsSliderTemplate" minValue="0" maxValue="500" defaultValue="50" valueStep="5" orientation="HORIZONTAL">
             <Size x="284" y="21" />
             <Anchors>
                    <Anchor point="TOPLEFT">
                  <Offset x="480" y="-167" />
                    </Anchor>
             </Anchors>
             <Scripts>
                  <OnLoad>CashProfitSlider_OnLoad(self:GetName())</OnLoad>
                  <OnValueChanged>_G[self:GetName().."Text"]:SetText(_G[self:GetName()]:GetValue())</OnValueChanged>
             </Scripts>
         </Slider>
     </Frames>

    with the lua code being :

          function CashProfitSlider_OnLoad(slider)
        local sl=_G[slider]
        sl.tooltipText = "|cffffff00This is the Minimum Gold Profit you are looking for.";
        _G[slider.."Low"]:SetText("0");
        _G[slider.."High"]:SetText("500");
        _G[slider.."Text"]:SetText("50");
      end

    Not the most elegant of code, but i think the bit you need is the OnValueChanged line.
