Noob Warning: How to change default range on slider

Scripting Issues
1

Sorry all for the dumb newbie question (see excuses below)…

The subject line really says it all.

Simply: How do I change the default range for a slider?

Excuses: Old C programmer, managed to avoid OO til now, new to Panda3D, Python. Lotsa learning to do!!!

check out

http://panda3d.org/manual/index.php/DirectSlider

They list range as the option to set when you declare the bar.

ie:


myBar=DirectSlider(range=(1,10))

zpavlov et.al.,

Here is my code:

self.sliderX = DirectSliderBar(pos = Vec3(0,0,0.7), value = .50,
range=(1,10), command = self.PanX)

I get the following error:

TypeError: bad argument type for built in operation.

I remove the range option and I do not get the error.

Any hints?

oops, the new panda uses a range tuple, but 1.0.5 has range as a multiplier on 0 to 1. So, range=10 will give you values from 0 to 10. From there, your slider callback can add an offset if you need it.
