Slider Formatting Properties |
The AutoTicks property sets or gets whether the slider displays a tick mark for each increment specified by TickFrequency, which gets or sets the spacing of the ticks on the Slider. For even tick spacing, the (MaxRange - MinRange)/TickFrequency should be a whole number. The Ticks property sets or gets whether the slider displays tick marks.
bMode = Slider.AutoTicks
Slider.AutoTicks
= bMode
longFreq = Slider.TickFrequency
Slider.TickFrequency
= longFreq
bMode = Slider.Ticks
Slider.Ticks
= bMode
