@section{description}
EZKnob is wrapper class which creates an (optional) link::Classes/StaticText::, and a link::Classes/Knob:: plus a link::Classes/NumberBox::. If the parent is nil, then EZKnob will create its own window. See link::Classes/EZGui:: more options.
@section{subsection}
Some Important Issues Regarding NumberBox
@section{warning}
EZKnob replaces the EZKnob Quark, which is now called EZKnobOld. It is encouraged to update your code. The two classes have different creation methods and approaches, particularly concerning the strong::dimensions:: (now strong::bounds::). To make the conversion process easier, EZKnobOld has an instance method called convert which will post the equivalent creation code for the new EZKnob.
::
@section{note}
Bounds: Make certain to choose bounds that are large enough to encompass the knob, the number box, and the label (if you use one), otherwise you may get confusing results. See the examples below.
::
@section{classmethods}
@section{method}
new
@section{argument}
parent
The parent view or window. If the parent is nil, then EZKnob will create its own link::Classes/Window::, and place it conveniently on the screen if the bounds are a link::Classes/Point::. If the bounds are a link::Classes/Rect::, then the link::Classes/Rect:: determines the window bounds.
@section{argument}
bounds
An instance of link::Classes/Rect:: or link::Classes/Point::. Default value is
@racketblock[160@20::. Make certain to choose bounds that are large enough to encompass the knob, the number box, and the label (if you use one), otherwise you may get confusing results. See the examples below.
]
@section{argument}
label
The label. Default value is nil. If nil, then no link::Classes/StaticText:: is created.
@section{argument}
controlSpec
The link::Classes/ControlSpec:: for scaling the value. If the
@racketblock[minVal + maxVal:: of the spec is 0, then ]
@racketblock[centered:: will be set to true automatically.
]
@section{argument}
action
A link::Classes/Function:: called when the value changes. The function is passed the EZKnob instance as its argument.
@section{argument}
initVal
The value to initialize the knob and number box with. If nil, then it uses the link::Classes/ControlSpec::'s default value.
@section{argument}
initAction
A link::Classes/Boolean:: indicating whether the action function should be called when setting the initial value. The default is false.
@section{argument}
labelWidth
Number of pixels width for the label. default is 60. This is only valid for the
@racketblock[\horz:: layout.
]
@section{argument}
knobSize
An instance of link::Classes/Point::. It will adjust itself to maximize the space use of
@racketblock[width/height::. By default, it uses the maximum available height, and adjusts the width accordingly.
]
@section{argument}
unitWidth
Number of pixels width for the unit label. Default is 0. If 0, then no unitLabel is created.
@section{argument}
labelHeight
Default is 20.
@section{argument}
layout
@racketblock[\vert::, ]
@racketblock[vert2::, ]
@racketblock[\line2::, or ]
@racketblock[\horz::. default is ]
@racketblock[\vert::.
]
@section{argument}
gap
A link::Classes/Point::. By default, the view tries to get its parent's gap, otherwise it defaults to
@racketblock[2@2::. Setting it overrides these.
]
@section{argument}
margin
A link::Classes/Point::. This will inset the bounds occupied by the subviews of view.
