\section{\class{wxSlider}}\label{wxslider}
A slider is a control with a handle which can be pulled
back and forth to change the value.
In Windows versions below Windows 95, a scrollbar is used to simulate the slider. In Windows 95,
the track bar control is used.
Slider events are handled in the same way as a scrollbar.

\wxheading{Event handling}
To process input from a slider, use one of these event handler macros to direct input to member
functions that take a \helpref{wxScrollEvent}{wxscrollevent} argument:
\twocolwidtha{7cm}
\begin{twocollist}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_SCROLL(id, func)}}{Catch all scroll commands.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_TOP(id, func)}}{Catch a command to put the scroll thumb at the maximum position.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_BOTTOM(id, func)}}{Catch a command to put the scroll thumb at the maximum position.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_LINEUP(id, func)}}{Catch a line up command.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_LINEDOWN(id, func)}}{Catch a line down command.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_PAGEUP(id, func)}}{Catch a page up command.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_PAGEDOWN(id, func)}}{Catch a page down command.}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_COMMAND\_THUMBTRACK(id, func)}}{Catch a thumbtrack command (continuous movement of the scroll thumb).}
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_SLIDER(id, func)}}{Process a wxEVT\_COMMAND\_SLIDER\_UPDATED event,
when the slider is moved. Though provided for backward compatibility, this is obsolete.}
