Wingnut Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Hiya UB, welcome to the forum. I have only made one vertical slider in my life, and I might have done it incorrectly... but here it is. https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#3VMTI9#5 I used it for an experimental list-view window... https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#08KEYA#32 (Side note: I might try a re-write of that PG, using the new GUI Grid Control. Potential reduced code/complexity, and easy-addition of many more table columns.) @Arte added some mousewheel stuff in lines 311-325, works great... but... #30 is a free-camera scene (doesn't use mousewheel for the camera). For arc-rotate-camera... mousewheel IS used for the camera... for zoom/cam-distance. Sooooo... if you are going to activate mousewheeling on your vertical slider, you might wish to use a freeCamera... to avoid mouseWheel conflicts. It looks like you are over-riding the arcCamera mousewheel-zoom, and using the slider for zooming. So, maybe no problem for you to use freeCamera, along with Arte's 311-325 mousewheel code. Advanced stuff: Mousewheeling vertical sliders... might depend-upon "focus". Let's pretend you have 4 vertical sliders on-screen. You need to invent a focus system... so the mousewheel knows WHICH vertical slider to slide. PointerEnterObservable ad pointerOutObservable... are a good way to make a focus system, but I have seen the TAB button used, too... like in web-page forms. Be sure to ask... if you have troubles with a focus system... we're here for ya. I don't think anyone has done much GUI control focus/un-focus work... so maybe we will all invent it together (you and other forum members). Maybe someone already invented a focus system for GUI. Perhaps they will comment soon. I hope this helps. Party on! Arte and unobruno 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 The slider does not support vertical mode for now but we are looking for help to make that happens https://github.com/BabylonJS/Babylon.js/issues/4471 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arte Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 @Deltakosh How about slider.rotation = -Math.PI/2; ??? https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#3VMTI9#6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingnut Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Hi guys. Glad to hear you are rolling, UB. Perhaps wise to check cross-browser and cross-platform very carefully... for these "bootleg" vertical sliders. Thx for info, DeltaKush... I/we never knew they were intended for horz-only. Yes, interesting! Sometimes, I do the slider rotation, but the mouse still needs dragging left/right... to make slider to move up/down. Strange. I think #4 is currently doing that. (same for both IE and FF.) I should study why. I'm quite sure the slider control... is haunted. But it is haunted by a friendly ghost.

Wingnut Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Sure... could be so. One issue... VR head gear. Last I heard... VR head gear does NOT allow HTML elements to be on-canvas. I don't have any VR headsets, nor have I gotten the opportunity to try it... but... I hear it's becoming popular. This is why some of us prefer BJS GUI (2d and 3d). Ok, party on! unobruno and GameMonetize 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
