DialogControls-Sliders

General

• TokenNames common to most controls, such as x,y,w,h,text,idc... are not listed here.
• 'Sliders' and 'ScrollBars' are synonymous.
• Default scrollbars (sliders) are VERTICAL. Use ST_HORZ to change orientation.
• Embedded child scrollbars are created by the engine as and when required for various control types. (CT_LISTBOX eg). The engine generates it's own idc for them. In most cases you can alter characteristics of that auto-generated scrollbar via class ScrollBar

It makes no sense to create 'independent' scrollbars without an idc.

CT_SLIDER=3 (deprecated)

A Slider Control
