I could see this very useful for graphical/scientific/mathematical/compSci 
applications. We should be able to specify the base as well.

Normal BXML: <Slider bxml:id="normalslider" range="{start:0, end:255}" 
value="0"/>
Logarithmic BXML: <LogSlider bxml:id="logslider" range="{start:0, end: 65536, 
base:16}" value="4096"/>

Code:
private Slider slider = null;
private LogSlider logslider = null;
slider = (Slider)namespace.get("slider");
slider = (logSlider)namespace.get("logslider ");

Subject: Suggestion for logarithmic scale for sliders

Just wanted to see if anyone would find it useful to be able to specify a 
logarithmic scale for a slider so you could get values from 1 to 10,000,000 
(for instance) without having a huge jump in value for each pixel of mouse 
movement.  So, the values could go:  1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000 instead of 1, 2, 
3, 4, 5, 6, ...

Thoughts?  Thanks.

Roger Whitcomb
