Description

Note: the following information describes what the multiscale widget should do. At present, only one scale is supported.

This Glish/Tk widget provides one or more basic Glish/Tk scale widgets having identical value ranges, but different values. Its intelligence lies in its ability to ensure that values remain ordered. That is, it can be used for the selection of minimum and maximum values of data, and ensures that the minimum is always less than or equal to the maximum.

Whenever the user modifies any one of the scales in the multiscale widget, an event "values" is emitted from the multiscale, whose value is a vector of floats being the position of each slider.

If you chooser to show an entry box as well (entry=T) as the slider, then they are connected. The values selected with the slider show in the entry box. When you enter a value in the entry box, after you press carriage return, the slider will update its value.

You can also interactively extend the range of the slider (extend=T and entry=T). In this case, a check box is offered. If checked, then any value you enter in the entry box which is outside of the current slider range, will extend the slider range.
