rangeMin

Determines the lower limit for values in a component.

Property of

Progress, ScrollBar, Slider, SpinBox

Description

Use rangeMin in combination with rangeMax to specify a range restriction for values entered into a component. (rangeMin sets the lower limit and rangeMax sets the upper limit.) For example, an application that lets the user input a percentage would prevent the input of a value less than 0 or greater than 100. The same ranges would apply for a Progress component showing percent complete.

In a SpinBox component, if the value is too low, the value is set to rangeMin. SpinBox components allow both numbers and dates; the rangeMin must be the same data type. The Progress, Slider, and ScrollBar allow numbers only. rangeMin must be less than rangeMax.

Note

Range restrictions in a SpinBox have effect only when the rangeRequired property is true.
