Hi , Indicator popup UI is already implemented as an edc style based feature. But the concern is about layering ( refer to earlier discussions on the same: http://www.mail-archive.com/enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg41014.html ) - the current design cannot bring the slider indicator on to a top layer.
If we pack slider inside a genlist, the portion of Slider indicator that is beyond the genlist item area is been clipped, causing the problem. To display the full indicator, we need to move portion of edj object part to a higher layer which against EDJE Object design. To overcome this, we have to use a different edj object to stack up in the widget C code. With further enhancement of this, Module design allows us to customize the indicator object. So we are proposing the indicator popup module for elm_slider widget.
