Question: Multivalue sliders with independent handles

[gerwindehaan]

Thanks for your work on Compactslider!
In a prototype UI I am trying to achieve two handles on a single slider, without resorting to making multiple "single" sliders:

• values are independent, so no lower and upper but rather start and stop where stop could be higher, equal or lower than start.
• I'd like to avoid handle "handover" when sliding a single handle across the boundary of another handle
• I'd like to have "locked" handles so I can prevent moving of individual handles
• I'd like to have limits or constraints to individual handles so they are restricted to certain value range or distance to the other slider.

Would you have any suggestions to see how that is possible today or where to best add these features in the package?

Basically you want something like this:

[----|-----------|----]

Check examples with multiple values:

CompactSlider(values: $values)

Thanks, I had already experimented with these and stumbled onto the 4 limitations I listed above (mostly because it seems it expects a range where first value < second value and stay in-order).
At this point I resorted to using two single value vertical sliders hugging side by side and do custom drawing inbetween.

Hmm... I see. I think I made this behavior accidentally. When you drag a handle the slider will try to find the current handle every time. I think I can fix that.
