UXML element SliderInt

The SliderInt lets users select an integer value from a range of values. You can use a SliderInt to adjust a value, such as the number of lives in a game. To set the value, you drag a thumb along a track, or click the track itself. A slider can also include a text input fieldA field that allows the user to input a Text string More info
See in Glossary, where you can modify the value directly.

Note: To align an element with other fields in an InspectorA Unity window that displays information about the currently selected GameObject, asset or project settings, allowing you to inspect and edit the values. More info
See in Glossary window, simply apply the .unity-base-field__aligned USS class to it. For more information, refer to BaseField.

Create a SliderInt

You can create a SliderInt with UI(User Interface) Allows a user to interact with your application. Unity currently supports three UI systems. More info
See in Glossary Builder, UXML, or C#. The following C# example creates a SliderInt with a default value, low value, and high value, and sets the direction of the slider:

var sliderInt = new SliderInt();
sliderInt.value = 42;
sliderInt.lowValue = 0;
sliderInt.highValue = 100;
sliderInt.direction = SliderDirection.Horizontal;

Set page size

The SliderInt control has a page-size property that controls how much the thumb moves, and how much the value changes, when you click the track to either side of the thumb.

If the page size value is 0, clicking the track moves the thumb to the cursor or pointer position, and updates the value accordingly.

If the page size value is greater than 0, clicking the track moves the thumb toward the cursor or pointer position by a specific amount. SliderInt controls treat page-size as an absolute value.

For example, if the total range is 200, and the page size is 20, the page size amount is an absolute value of 20. Each time you click the track, the thumb moves, and the value increases or decreases by 20.​

Example

The following UXML example creates a SliderInt:

<UXML xmlns="UnityEngine.UIElements" xmlns:uie="UnityEditor.UIElements">
    <SliderInt
        label="UXML Slider"
        name="the-uxml-slider"
        low-value="0"
        high-value="100"
        page-size="1"
        value="42" />
</UXML>

The following C# example illustrates some of the customizable functionalities of the SliderInt:

/// <sample>
// Get a reference to the slider from UXML and assign it its value.
var uxmlSlider = container.Q<SliderInt>("the-uxml-slider");
uxmlSlider.value = 42;

// Create a new slider, disable it, and give it a style class.
var csharpSlider = new SliderInt("C# Slider", 0, 100);
csharpSlider.SetEnabled(false);
csharpSlider.AddToClassList("some-styled-slider");
csharpSlider.value = uxmlSlider.value;
container.Add(csharpSlider);

// Mirror value of uxml slider into the C# field.
uxmlSlider.RegisterCallback<ChangeEvent<int>>((evt) =>
{
    csharpSlider.value = evt.newValue;
});
/// </sample>
