| This is the box with the two arrows you use to increase or decrease a number in just about every windows app there is. There isn't any way to make one of these, is there? Someone pointed out a while ago that you can squash a listbox and put numbers in it. However, when you scroll the numbers with the button on the side, you don't actually select anything. |

| You seek the excellent XLnt II GUI which has that plus much more. |
| ||
| That's just a bad, wrong answer to my question. |
| ||
| You can make one quite easily using a slider gadget next to (or inside, i forget which) a textfield gadget. I use them in FONText, very nice looking. |
| ||
| a bad, wrong answer Hmm, Yappy already did it, makes the code available for your download/inspection for free (though he does ask you to register it for $15 if you use it for commercial games), and that's wrong? |

| WendelM - he is asking in a BlitzPlus forum, so its safe to assume he is refering to BlitzPlus GUI stuff. :) |

| Yeah, I realized that too late <sigh>. Sorry, Halo... <weak grin> |

| No problem. I am referring to the box with two small buttons next to it. Open PSP and go to "Resize" to see what I mean. You can't use sliders when your range to precision ratio is huge. If I have a range anywhere from 3 to 64 and want to be able to set the value to any integer in between, there's no way to fit a slider into a 100-pixel-wide space. I'll also add that this can't be made with buttons, because it needs to be updated while you are holding the button down. I was really surprised that this was left out of the initial release. |

| I can't understand you unless you speak correct American English. |

| correct American English. An oxymoron surely? |

| Ha! Good one... ;) Still, a proper spinner gadget in B+ could be useful... Russell |
