[flexcoders] VSlider direction?
I am trying to make a VSlider but in a reversed direction than the default one, i.e., making it up side down, i.e., with the maximum value on the bottom and the minimum value on the top. What would be the easiest/fastest way? One of the innovative ways (but unsuccessful) I tried was setting the maximum value to the minimum property and the minimum value to the maximum property. Thanks.

Does slider.rotation = 180 do what you want?

Re: [flexcoders] VSlider direction?
You've already had a suggestion to rotate the control; most users would expect the control to operate in the usual way, so what's the exception in this case?

RE: [flexcoders] VSlider direction?
I think that is a valid modification, say your control is increasing attenuation. If it was me, I would just look at the slider control code and decide whether to subclass or copy and modify it. I bet the logic is pretty simple.

Re: [flexcoders] VSlider direction?
I take your point, but even for attenuation I would expect to slide upwards to increase the attenuation level. If I dampen a sound, the more I dampen it the quieter it gets. My slider would be controlling the dampening rather than the sound volume. Maybe I've got the example wrong.
