Remapper (IntSlider Control to IntSlider)

This remapper lets you specify how the IntSlider control affects the target integer slider input. The remapper is visible only when Use Remapping is turned on in the properties of the IntSlider control component. For more information on how remapping works, see Remappers. A good example of the practical use of this remapper can be found in the FractaPixels filter which is included with Filter Forge.

The remapper works as follows: it takes Value supplied by the IntSlider, adds the Offset value, multiplies it by the Step value and sends the result to the target input. If the range of resulting values is too large to be accepted by the target input, the remapper causes the IntSlider control to lower its upper limit so that Value multiplied by Step fits into the range of the target input. In this case, an appropriate notification is displayed in the IntSlider properties.

For example, consider an IntSlider with Max Value of 10 connected to an input with the maximum value of 7. When Step in the remapper is set to 3, the resulting value can range from 3 to 30, which is too large for the target range of 1 to 7. In this case, the remapper will cause the IntSlider to lower the upper limit for its Value to 2 – this will limit the target values to the range of 3 to 6, which is acceptable for the target input.

Step

Specifies the multiplier for Value provided by the IntSlider. The multiplication is performed before the result is sent to the target input.

Offset

Specifies the offset to be added to Value provided by the IntSlider. The addition is performed before the result is sent to the target input.

Flip

When enabled, flips the minimum and maximum values of the IntSlider: setting IntSlider to 1 yields its maximum value, while setting it to Max Value produces 1.
