UXML element MinMaxSlider

The MinMaxSlider element is a slider that lets users select a range of values within a specified minimum and maximum range. You can use it to set a range of values for various parameters, such as volume levels, character stats, or other numerical values in your UI(User Interface) Allows a user to interact with your application. Unity currently supports three UI systems. More info
See in Glossary. To use it, define the minimum and maximum values, and then slide the handle to select the range you want.

Create a MinMaxSlider

You can create a MinMaxSlider with UI Builder, UXML, or C#. The following C# example creates a MinMaxSlider with a default value, low limit, and high limit:

var minMaxSlider = new MinMaxSlider();
minMaxSlider.value = new Vector2(0.25f, 0.75f);
minMaxSlider.lowLimit = 0;
minMaxSlider.highLimit = 1;

Note: To align an element with other fields in an InspectorA Unity window that displays information about the currently selected GameObject, asset or project settings, allowing you to inspect and edit the values. More info
See in Glossary window, simply apply the .unity-base-field__aligned USS class to it. For more information, refer to BaseField.

Example

The following UXML example creates a MinMaxSlider:

<UXML xmlns="UnityEngine.UIElements" xmlns:uie="UnityEditor.UIElements">
    <MinMaxSlider
        label="UXML Field"
        name="the-uxml-field"
        min-value="0"
        max-value="20"
        low-limit="-10"
        high-limit="40" />
</UXML>

The following C# example illustrates some of the customizable functionalities of the MinMaxSlider:

/// <sample>
// Get a reference to the field from UXML and assign a value to it.
var uxmlField = container.Q<MinMaxSlider>("the-uxml-field");
uxmlField.value = new Vector2(10, 12);

// Create a new field, disable it, and give it a style class.
var csharpField = new MinMaxSlider("C# Field", 0, 20, -10, 40);
csharpField.SetEnabled(false);
csharpField.AddToClassList("some-styled-field");
csharpField.value = uxmlField.value;
container.Add(csharpField);

// Mirror value of uxml field into the C# field.
uxmlField.RegisterCallback<ChangeEvent<Vector2>>((evt) =>
{
    csharpField.value = evt.newValue;
});
/// </sample>

C# base class and namespace

C# class: MinMaxSlider
Namespace: UnityEngine.UIElements
Base class: BaseField_1

Member attributes

This element has the following member attributes:

Name	Type	Description
`high-limit`	`float`	This is the high limit of the slider.
`low-limit`	`float`	This is the low limit of the slider.
`max-value`	`float`	This is the high value of the range represented on the slider.
`min-value`	`float`	This is the low value of the range represented on the slider.

Inherited attributes

This element inherits the following attributes from its base class:

Name	Type	Description
`binding-path`	`string`	Path of the target property to be bound.
`focusable`	`boolean`	True if the element can be focused.
`label`	`string`	The string representing the label that will appear beside the field.
`tabindex`	`int`	An integer used to sort focusables in the focus ring. Must be greater than or equal to zero.

This element also inherits the following attributes from VisualElement:

Name	Type	Description
`content-container`	`string`	Child elements are added to it, usually this is the same as the element itself.
`name`	`string`	The name of this VisualElement. Use this property to write USS selectors that target a specific element. The standard practice is to give an element a unique name.
`picking-mode`	`UIElements.PickingMode`	Determines if this element can be pick during mouseEvents or `IPanel.Pick` queries.
`style`	`string`	Reference to the style object of this element. Contains data computed from USS files or inline styles written to this object in C#.
`tooltip`	`string`	Text to display inside an information box after the user hovers the element for a small amount of time.
`usage-hints`	`UIElements.UsageHints`	A combination of hint values that specify high-level intended usage patterns for the `VisualElement`. This property can only be set when the `VisualElement` is not yet part of a `Panel`. Once part of a `Panel`, this property becomes effectively read-only, and attempts to change it will throw an exception. The specification of proper `UsageHints` drives the system to make better decisions on how to process or accelerate certain operations based on the anticipated usage pattern. Note that those hints do not affect behavioral or visual results, but only affect the overall performance of the panel and the elements within. It’s advised to always consider specifying the proper `UsageHints`, but keep in mind that some `UsageHints` might be internally ignored under certain conditions (e.g. due to hardware limitations on the target platform).
`view-data-key`	`string`	Used for view data persistence (ie. tree expanded states, scroll position, zoom level). This is the key used to save/load the view data from the view data store. Not setting this key will disable persistence for this `VisualElement`.

USS classes

The following table lists all the C# public property names and their related USS selector.

C# property	USS selector	Description
`ussClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider`	USS class name of elements of this type.
`labelUssClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider__label`	USS class name of labels in elements of this type.
`inputUssClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider__input`	USS class name of input elements in elements of this type.
`trackerUssClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider__tracker`	USS class name of tracker elements in elements of this type.
`draggerUssClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider__dragger`	USS class name of dragger elements in elements of this type.
`minThumbUssClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider__min-thumb`	USS class name of the minimum thumb elements in elements of this type.
`maxThumbUssClassName`	`.unity-min-max-slider__max-thumb`	USS class name of the maximum thumb elements in elements of this type.
`ussClassName`	`.unity-base-field`	USS class name of elements of this type.
`labelUssClassName`	`.unity-base-field__label`	USS class name of labels in elements of this type.
`inputUssClassName`	`.unity-base-field__input`	USS class name of input elements in elements of this type.
`noLabelVariantUssClassName`	`.unity-base-field--no-label`	USS class name of elements of this type, when there is no label.
`labelDraggerVariantUssClassName`	`.unity-base-field__label--with-dragger`	USS class name of labels in elements of this type, when there is a dragger attached on them.
`mixedValueLabelUssClassName`	`.unity-base-field__label--mixed-value`	USS class name of elements that show mixed values
`alignedFieldUssClassName`	`.unity-base-field__aligned`	USS class name of elements that are aligned in a inspector element
