Calling Sequence

RotaryGauge( rng, opts )

Parameters

rng

-

(optional) range(realcons); range of position values

opts

-

(optional) ; one or more keyword options as described below

Options

• 

action : string; A string which parses to one or more valid statements in 1-D Maple Notation. These statements form the Value Changed Action Component Code that executes when the Rotary Gauge's position is manually adjusted.

• 

continuous : truefalse; Indicates whether dragging of the sliding component will result in continuous updates using the action code.

• 

enabled : truefalse; Indicates whether the component is enabled. The default is true. If enabled is false then the inserted sliding component is grayed out and interaction with it cannot be initiated.

• 

identity : {name,string}; The reference name of the component.

• 

majorticks : numeric; The interval between the major tickmarks on the sliding component. The default is .2 times the upper value of rng minus the lower value of rng.

• 

minorticks : numeric; The interval between the minor tickmarks on the sliding component. The default is 1/2 majorticks.

• 

position : numeric; The initial position of the sliding component. If not specified the value of the left endpoint of the rng argument is used.

• 

showlabels : truefalse; Indicates whether values are shown beside tickmarks. The default is true.

• 

showticks : truefalse; Indicates whether tickmarks are shown. The default is true.

• 

tooltip : string; The text that appears when the mouse pointer hovers over the component.

• 

visible : truefalse; Indicates whether the component is visible. The default is true.

Description

• 

The RotaryGauge command in the Component Constructors package returns an XML function call which represents a RotaryGauge Component.

• 

The generated XML can be used with the results of commands in the Layout Constructors package to create an entire Worksheet or Document in XML form. Such a representation of a Worksheet or Document can be inserted into the current document using the InsertContent command.

Examples

withDocumentTools:

withDocumentTools:-Components:

withDocumentTools:-Layout:

Executing the RotaryGauge command produces a function call.

SRotaryGaugeidentity=RotaryGauge0

S_XML_EC-Rotary-Gaugeid=RotaryGauge0,lower-bound=0,upper-bound=100,control-position=0,major-tick-spacing=20,minor-ticks=10,show-labels=true,show-ticks=true,continuous-update=true,inputenabled=true,visible=true

(1)

By using commands from the DocumentTools:-Layout package a nested function call can be produced which represents a worksheet.

xmlWorksheetGroupInputTextfieldS:

That XML representation of a worksheet can be inserted directly.

InsertContentxml:

codestring\ns := true;\n\nt := false;

codestring s := true; t := false;

(2)

SRotaryGauge0...11.0,identity=RotaryGauge0,tooltip=My example RotaryGauge,showlabels,position=6.45,width=90,height=90,action=codestring:

xmlWorksheetGroupInputTextfieldS:

The previous example's call to the InsertContent command inserted a component with identity "RotaryGauge0", which still exists in this worksheet. Inserting additional content whose input contains another component with that same identity "RotaryGauge0" incurs a substitution of the input identity in order to avoid a conflict with the identity of the existing component.

The return value of the following call to InsertContent is a table which can be used to reference the substituted identity of the inserted component.

lookupInsertContentxml,output=table

lookuptableRotaryGauge0=RotaryGauge1

lookupRotaryGauge0

RotaryGauge1

(4)

GetPropertylookupRotaryGauge0,value

Compatibility

• 

The DocumentTools:-Components:-RotaryGauge command was introduced in Maple 2015.
