Sliders with monthly unit - issue with labels and the

[#1]

Hi,

I try to create a slider object, the unit shall be month names. My problem is now, that the label of the sliders shows the first month's name twice and skips the second one. Please see attached example file.

Second thing: When working with the AJAX client, the pin of one the sliders (there are different ones in the real version) is not displayed, only if I do a mouse-over it gets visible and can be set by another click. Other slider's pins behave normal, meaning they are already assigned to a specific value. Might this be a bug?

Thanks

Jens

Additional question: I see that the used variables 'v_from' and 'v_to' are numeric values and can be set the each single day between my first and my last value. Is it possible to only allow a move of the slider per Month, so that each slider can only take the values for Jan, Feb and Mar?

Hi,

U can use Month as Field in slider directly. This will solve the first problem.

Regarding second issue, the arrow is shown only when certain selection is made in the field used for slider.So u can use always one selected option in that field's List Box or u can use a trigger for that.

I see that I didnt' explain well enough.

I need to use two sliders for one time range, one slider for the start month and one slider for the end month, the value needs to be summed up for that range between.

Hi Jens,

PFA.

Here in the Minimum value, u hv to add 3.The reason is when we show 3 major units in slider,it takes Minimum ,maximum value and the median of those two value.

Here Min value=41275

        Max Value=41334

so median will be 41305. When we show them in "MMM-YYYY" format in slider, 41275 and 41305 has "Jan-2013" value. So to overcome it,we have to add a value 3 to minimum value.

so Min Value=41275+3=41278<=>Jan 2013

Max value=41334<=>Maz 2013

median=41306<=>Feb 2013
