The update policy of a Range
widget
defines at what points during user interaction it will change the
value
field of its Gtk::Adjustment
and
emit the value_changed
signal. The update policies,
set with the set_update_policy()
method, are:
Gtk::UPDATE_CONTINUOUS
- This is the default. The
value_changed
signal is emitted continuously, i.e. whenever the
slider is moved by even the tiniest amount.
Gtk::UPDATE_DISCONTINUOUS
- The value_changed
signal is
only emitted once the slider has stopped moving and the user has
released the mouse button.
Gtk::UPDATE_DELAYED
- The value_changed
signal is emitted
when the user releases the mouse button, or if the slider stops moving
for a short period of time.
