Trackbars


A TrackBar is similar to a scroll bar control. These controls will generate WM_HSCROLL or WM_VSCROLL messages like scroll bars do. You can use getPos()& setPos() to get the position of a track bar and getScrollInfo() or setScrollInfo() to access other settings as explained above. Other actions, such as setting the tick marks along a TrackBar, are possible by sending certain messages. See the Win32 API documentation for details. An important difference between TrackBars and ScrollBars is that because TrackBars have no "thumb" the pointer position can reach to MAXRANGE but a Scrollbar position can only reach to MAXRANGE-PAGESIZE+1.
