To all:

I have created a slider formtool for a client and thought it could be useful 
to others in the community.  You can find the source for it 
here: https://gist.github.com/1230366

To use, simply download the CFC, and place it in your projects 
/farcry/projects/projectname/packages/formtools directory.  Once there, you 
specify the metadata in your custom types as you would use any other 
formtool.

<cfproperty ftLabel="Num. of Apples" name="numApples" type="integer" 
ftType="slider" ftMin="1" ftMax="100" ftStep="1" ftOrientation="horiztonal" 
/>

The formtool is an extension of the numeric formtool found in core, so you 
can use any of the features found from that formtool in the slider 
(ftPrefix, ftSuffix, etc).

The slider formtool adds 4 new metadata options.  ftMin, ftMax, ftStep, and 
ftOrientation. Min and Max are the lowest and highest values allowed for the 
field.  ftStep is the increment factor the slider will use.  If you specify 
one, each slide of the slider will move the value by 1, if you specify 0.5, 
it will increment it by 0.5 (1, 1.5, 2, etc).  ftOrientation can be either 
"horizontal" or "vertical" and it will orient the slider either horizontally 
or vertically.

Your users can either type a value into the text box or use the slider to 
select a value.

This uses the jQuery UI Slider widget (http://jqueryui.com/demos/slider/) so 
you can use it with FarCry 6+ since core ships with jQuery UI built in.

If you find it useful, missing a feature, broken, etc please let me know. 
 Consider it released under a "do whatever you want with it" license.
