Slide Control
Use the Measurement Studio ActiveX slide control, as shown in
Figure 3-6, to display numerical data.
CNiSlide is the class that provides
the Visual C++ interface to the ActiveX slide control.
Figure 3-6. ActiveX Slide Control
With the slide control and the classes that interface with the control,
you can perform the following operations:
• Use different display styles—vertical, horizontal, tank, and
thermometer.
• Use the CNiAxis class to interface to a single axis of a slide control.
This ability allows you to modify the appearance and behavior of
the axis.
• Use multiple control pointers, each one representing one scalar value.
• Automatically label axes with log or inverted numeric scales and
continuous or discrete values.
• Customize the slide by using ticks, labels, and value pairs.
• Bind properties to a DataSocket source or target. You use binding to
read property values from a source and write property values to a
target.
Tip For more information about easily using the slide control, refer to the Using the
Measurement Studio Visual C++ Slide Control section in the NI Measurement Studio Help.
