I have been writing a widget which need 3 sliders, I have tried to
use the sliders in the AppleSlider.js and I get them to work
inside Safari and Widgetarium but in Dashboard they seem to have
problems. The thumb will not drag you can click on the track to
change the value of the slider but not the thumb. I am new to Java
Script and I have found samples of other sliders but I would like
to use the ones that Apple provides. Has anyone used the
AppleSliders with success? If so is there a widget out there that
uses them that I can look at.
It looks like there may be an issue with AppleSlider when the
element it is given is absolutely-positioned. In this case the
element AppleSlider creates which has the Dashboard region set on
it is not sized properly, which means the slider is not marked as
being a control.
The easiest workaround is to just set -apple-dashboard-region:
dashboard-region(control rectangle); on the element you want to use
(or from JavaScript style.appleDashboardRegion = "dashboard-region
(control rectangle)"; ). The other workaround is to use relatively-
positioned elements.
This may also affect AppleScrollbar.
Just a quick update—this doesn't affect AppleScrollbar, only
AppleSlider.
