Have a bar with three dividers. The bar represents 100%. The space
between dividers and the edges represents a percentage. Drag the divider
bars to set the percentages.

Have four entryfields. When they don't total 100 colour the background
red and mark them as invalid,

[flexcoders] Interface design

2011-08-07 Thread cjacquel73
Hello, 

I have to select 4 values of percentages. The sum of this 4 values should be 
equal to 100%. 

How to design an interface (with sliders or other), to select this 4 
percentages ?

Thank you,
Christophe
