ControlP5 - Slider text size and color.
Feb 23rd, 2009, 9:51pm  
Hello,

I need to change the text size and color on my sliders lables.
Anybody know how to do this?

there is a slightly bigger pixel font available now, ControlP5.grixel. use since version 0.3.14
Code:

Controller mySlider = controlP5.addSlider("sliderValue",0,255,40,40,100,10);
  mySlider.valueLabel().setFont(ControlP5.grixel).adjust();
  mySlider.captionLabel().setFont(ControlP5.grixel).adjust();
  mySlider.valueLabel().style().margin(-20,0,0,0);


ControllerStyle does not have any documentation yet, correct. currently it does apply to labels as follows:
// change margin for all 4 sides, same value
label.style().margin(int)
// change margin for all 4 side, individual values
label.style().margin(int,int,int,int)

Im Still having a problem with this. Probably doing it wrong.
Any help would be appreciated.

Error message is as follows:
"ControlP5.grixel cannot be resolved or is not a field"

my code is as follows:
  controlP5 = new ControlP5(this);
  Slider s = controlP5.addSlider("thighX",-135,40, -90,  260,430,   200,18);
   s.captionLabel().style().margin(0,0,10,0);
   s.captionLabel().setFont(controlP5.grixel).adjust();           <--  Error here



Thanks,  Andrew

PS. Thanks for writing this Lib. Great Job!

Oh yea!
I've also tried to create a new(larger) font, but am unsure as to how i might access it from the setFont() attrib.

Thanks,
A.

I'm also trying to increase the size of the font in ControlP5.  I tried the ".valueLabel().setFont(ControlP5.grixel).adjust();" on a textarea and it printed the first line but the rest was missing, and did not appear to wrap.
