Reverse slider without reversing the drag behaviour

Good day

Does anyone know how to reverse the slider without inverting the drag behaviour? I mean, instead of the slider starting from 0 to 10 dB it starts from 10 to 0 dB. I have tried different methods some suggested here in the forum but they all work but also invert the dragging behaviour which is not what i want. I am doing this in the drawRotarySlider function in my look and feel class and using an image strip. Maybe after reversing the slider i might need to invert the dragging behaviour too but how?

It seems that you want the value gets larger when moving the mouse upwards. If that is the case, I think there are two ways:

  • create your own slider to deal with mouseDragging and mouseWheel move
  • use a hidden slider which starts from 0 to 10 dB and adjust current slider when the hidden slider value changes

TBH, this design might be counter-intuitive.
