You could use a array/table with as many elements as you need
sliders, and use [int] to quantize them integers.
that's what i wanted to use in the first place. quantizing the table
values _after_ output, is of course possible, but then the
quantisation is not graphically visible, which makes for a lame
interface.
Most GUI elements give "integers" already, for example a default
slider gives 0-127. The type is float but the output values are all
without a decimal, unless you change the size or range of the slider
of course, so for your purposes you could consider them integers.
ja, but changing the range is what i'd often have to do, e.g. having
the user choose a step number between 0 and 7.
i tried quantizing the slider output and to use the set message to
immediately set the quantized value back into the fader for display,
but didn't get any usable results.

I once wrote a wrapper around arrays as [g_pattern32]:

you can
easily set table values with a number box which moves in integer
steps as
default.
thanks for the link. yes, this is certainly usable. but i'm still not
completely happy with this approach, either.
i think a well designed interface allows viewing and editing of the
data in the same location.
