Slider (simple) feature requests

[chkn]

1. The possibility to drag on the label to change the value, which is almost standard in most GUIs.

2. A pure label only mode (yes i know there are workarounds)

Actually the first is super easy to implement.
In
lookAndFeelChanged
just remove the IF condition, and attach the mouse-lister always (not only for LinearBar)

            // if (style == LinearBar || style == LinearBarVertical)
            {
                valueBox->addMouseListener (&owner, false);
                valueBox->setMouseCursor (MouseCursor::ParentCursor);
            }

            }

perhaps you can do that directly in your lookandFeel createSliderTextBox() implementation?

yes, i could try attaching i the listener in the the LnF-class, but feels a little bit messy if the slider may change it internals in the future. Thanks!

The slider-class is almost perfect, but it’d be great if it could be developed further, and adapt modern GUI approaches like dragging on label/label only mode.
