Chapter 10. Range-Based Controls
Range-based controls in SWT provide at the very least a minimum, a maximum, and a value that is somewhere between the two. They are special-purpose controls that some applications may require. For example, if you are implementing scrolling, you will almost certainly need to use a scroll bar. Many applications display a progress bar when they are busy performing a computation. Some applications use a scale to query the user for numeric values. All of these controls are range-based and have a very specific function.
