I have no idea what you mean by lacking a visual indication of sliderness. None of this is the point of the sliderbutton. I tend to think that representing discrete numerical quantities (i.e. Channels 1 to 16) is best done with the roman alphabet. For the sliderbutton in graphical form with variable precision, check the fansliders. Sorry about the flicker, it doesn't happen when dragging to the right or down; the problems with up and left are due to (AFAICS) insurmountable problems with X11. You can hold down ctrl to freeze the fan at it's current size, which stops the flicker while adjusting (also, shift freezes value adjustments so you can drag out without screwing up the current value). Basically, use the sliderbuttons when the number is important, use the fansliders when it isn't. --Pete <http://www.gazuga.net> "Nothing great was ever achieved by being realistic!" --Tom Venuto
