| Topic | Description |
|---|---|
| How to Create a Trackbar |
When the trackbar is created, both its range and its selection range are initialized. The page size is also set at this time. |
| How to Process Trackbar Notification Messages |
Trackbars notify their parent window of user actions by sending the parent a WM_HSCROLL or WM_VSCROLL message. |
| How to Limit Slider Movement |
As described in About Trackbar Controls, it is possible to set off part of the trackbar range as a selection range. One purpose of a selection range might be to limit movement of the slider, making some parts of the full range off limits. |
| How to Use Buddy Windows |
By setting other controls as buddy windows for a trackbar, you can automatically position those controls at the ends of the trackbar as labels. |
