=head1 Description
Base class for sliders and all other one-value "knobs". The
L<FLTK::Valuator|FLTK::Valuator> class controls a single floating-point value
and provides a consistent interface to set the L<C<value()>|/"value">,
L<C<range()>|/"range">, and L<C<step()>|/"step">, and insures that callbacks
are done the same for every object.
Callbacks are done each time the user changes the value. So if they drag a
slider, the callback is done each time the slider handle moves to a new pixel.
For most subclasses you can call L<C<when()>|/"when"> to get some other
callback behaviors:
=over
=item C<FLTK::WHEN_CHANGED>: this is the default, callback is done on any
change.
=item C<FLTK::WHEN_RELEASE>: it will only do the callback when the user moves
the slider and then lets it go on a different value than it started.
=item C<FLTK::WHEN_RELEASE_ALWAYS>: will do the callback when the user lets go
of the slider whether or not the value changed.
=item C<FLTK::WHEN_NEVER>: do not do the callback, instead it will turn on the
L<C<changed()>|/"changed"> flag.

=for apidoc ||double|value|
Returns the current value.
=for apidoc ||bool|value|v
Sets the current value, redrawing the widget if necessary by calling
L<C<value_damage()>|/"value_damage">. I<The new value is stored unchanged,
even if it is outside the range or not a multiple of L<C<step()>|/"step">>.
Returns true if the new value is different.

OUTPUT:

=for apidoc |||set_value|value
Sets the current value but does not call L<C<value_damage()>|/"value_damage">.
=for apidoc |||maximum|value
Sets the maximum value for the valuator. For most subclasses the user cannot
move the value outside the C<minimum()..maximum()> range if it starts inside
this range.
These values should be multiples of the L<C<step()>|/"step"> to avoid
ambiguity and possible implementation changes.
For most subclasses, the minimum may be greater than the maximum. This has the
effect of "reversing" the object so the larger values are in the opposite
direction. This also switches which end of the filled sliders is filled.
You probably need to L<C<redraw()>|/"redraw"> the widget after changing the
range.
=for apidoc |||minimum|value
Sets the minimum value for the valuator.
=for apidoc |||step|value
Set the step value. As the user moves the mouse the value is rounded to a
multiple of this. Values that are sufficently close to C<1/N> (where C<N> is
an integer) are detected and assummed to be exactly C<1/N>, so C<step(.00001)>
will work as wanted.
If this is zero (the default) then all rounding is disabled. This results in
the smoothest controller movement but this is not recommended if you want to
present the resulting numbers to the user as text, because they will have
useless extra digits of precision.
For some widgets like L<Roller|FLTK::Roller>, this is also the distance the
value moves when the user drags the mouse C<1> pixel. In these cases if
L<C<step()>|/"step"> is zero then it acts like it is C<.01>.
Negative values for L<C<step()>|/"step"> produce undocumented results.
=for apidoc H|||handle_drag|value
Subclasses should call this as the user moves the value. The passed number is
an arbitrary-precision value you want to set it to, this function clamps it to
the range (if L<C<previous_value()>|/"previous_value"> is in range) and rounds
it to the nearest multiple of L<C<step()>|/"step">, and then stores it into
L<C<value()>|/"value">. It then does the L<C<callback()>|/"callback"> if
necessary.

Sets both the L<C<minimum()>|/"minimum"> and L<C<maximum()>/"maximum">.
=cut
void
Valuator::range( double min, double max )
=for apidoc |||linesize|value
Set the value returned by L<C<linesize()>|/"linesize">, or restore the default
behavior by setting this to zero. Values less than zero or between zero and
the L<C<step()>|/"step"> value produce undefined results.
=for apidoc ||value|linesize|
Return the value set for L<C<linesize()>|/"linesize">, or the calculated value
if L<C<linesize()>|/"linesize"> is zero.
The linesize is the amount the valuator moves in response to an arrow key, or
the user clicking an up/down button, or a click of the mouse wheel. If this
has not been set, this will return the maximum of L<C<step()>|/"step"> and
C<1/50> of the range.

=for apidoc H|||value_damage|
Subclasses must implement this. It is called whenever the
L<C<value()>|/"value"> changes. They must call L<C<redraw()>|/"redraw"> if
necessary.
=for apidoc H|||handle_push|
Subclasses should call this when the user starts to change the value.

the callback.

=for apidoc ||int|format|buffer
Print the current value into the passed buffer as a user-readable and editable
string. Returns the number of bytes (not counting the terminating C<\0>)
written to the buffer. Calling code can assumme that the written string is
never longer than 20 characters.
=for subclassing
This is used by subclasses that let the user edit the value in a textfield.
Since this is a virtual function, you can override this in a subclass of those
and change how the numbers are displayed.
The default version prints enough digits for the current L<C<step()>|/"step">
value. If L<C<step()>|/"step"> is zero it does a C<%%g> format. If step is an
integer it does C<%%d> format. Otherwise it does a C<%.nf> format where n is
enough digits to show the step, maximum of 8.

=for apidoc ||int|handle|event
The base class L<C<handle()>|/"handle"> accepts C<FOCUS> and recognizes a
number of keystrokes that adjust the value. A subclass can call this to get
these keystrokes, it can also do it's own keystroke handling if it wants.
