Regardless, I have decided to use a standard LC slider set to -1,0,+1 with some labels grouped to it. It works like a charm and minimizes the number of graphics/objects and code. I was interested to see that; it's clever, and it does work if you click in the slider bar. But dragging the

Yea, I know I can make my own custom controls and have on numerous occasions. I *MUCH* prefer to use existing controls as I dislike UI coding. To me it is the most tedious part of app development. This google search shows (at least the majority of initial images) a bunch of 2-position

Nice! I like the idea of this because it gets the readout away from the cursor so that you can read it. Roger > On May 25, 2021, at 11:18 AM, Richmond via use-livecode > wrote: > > Sorry: went a bit bonkers: > > https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=7=35903 > > Richmond. > > On

Hi Paul, You can make your own custom controls in LiveCode. Perhaps you just want something more like three radio buttons, or simulate a slider control with buttons and graphics. Give us an example image to help clarify what you want. Thanks, Rick > On May 25, 2021, at 11:38 AM, Paul Dupuis
