How to set seekbar min and max value

Question

I have a seekbar and trying to set the value from 60 to 180 for one and 40 to 190 for the second one in step of 1.

sb1 = (SeekBar) findViewById(R.id.progress         


        

Answer 1

There is no option to set a min or max value in seekbar , so you can use a formula here to scale your value.

Desired_value = ( progress * ( Max_value - Min_value) / 100 ) + Min_value

I have tested this formula in many examples. In your example, if the progressBar is the middle(i.e. progress = 50 ) and your Min_val and Max_val are 60 and 180 respectively, then this formula will give you the Desired_value '120'.

Answer 2

    private static final int MIN_METERS = 100;
    private static final int JUMP_BY = 50;

    metersText.setText(meters+"");
    metersBar.setProgress((meters-MIN_METERS));
    metersBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        }
        @Override
        public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        }
        @Override
        public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress,boolean fromUser) {
            progress = progress + MIN_METERS;
            progress = progress / JUMP_BY;
            progress = progress * JUMP_BY;
            metersText.setText((progress)+"");
        }
    });
}

Answer 3

If you are using the AndroidX libraries (import androidx.preference.*), this functionality exists without any hacky workarounds!

    val seekbar = findPreference("your_seekbar") as SeekBarPreference
    seekbar.min = 1
    seekbar.max = 10
    seekbar.seekBarIncrement = 1

Answer 4

seekbar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new OnSeekBarChangeListener() {

            @Override
            public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {

            }

            @Override
            public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {

            }

            @Override
            public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress,
                    boolean fromUser) {

                int MIN = 5;
                if (progress < MIN) {

                    value.setText(" Time Interval (" + seektime + " sec)");
                } else {
                    seektime = progress;
                }
                value.setText(" Time Interval (" + seektime + " sec)");

            }
        });

For requirements like this I have created Utility to customize Seekbar progress like below code:

SeekBarUtil.class

   import android.widget.SeekBar;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class SeekBarUtil {

    public static void setSeekBar(SeekBar mSeekbar, int minVal, int maxVal, int intervalVal, final TextView mTextView, String startPrefix, String endSuffix) {

        int totalCount = (maxVal - minVal) / intervalVal;
        mSeekbar.setMax(totalCount);
        mSeekbar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new CustomSeekBarListener(minVal, maxVal, intervalVal) {
            @Override
            public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean fromUser) {
                //progress = ((int)Math.round(progress/interval))*interval;
                int val = min;
                if (interval == totalCount) {
                    val = max;
                } else {
                    val = min + (progress * interval);
                }
                seekBar.setProgress(progress);
                mTextView.setText(startPrefix + val + endSuffix);
            }
            @Override
            public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {  }

            @Override
            public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {   }
        });

    }
}

and CustomSeekBarListener.class

import android.widget.SeekBar;

class CustomSeekBarListener implements SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener {
    int min=0,max=0,interval=1;
    int totalCount;
    public CustomSeekBarListener(int min, int max, int interval) {
        this.min = min;
        this.max = max;
        this.interval = interval;
        totalCount= (max - min) / interval;
    }
    @Override
    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int i, boolean b) { }
    @Override
    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) { }
    @Override
    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) { }
}

and you can use it like below code snippet

SeekBarUtil.setSeekBar(seekbarAmountNeeded,10000,200000,5000,textAmount,"$"," PA");

Answer 6

Copy this class and use custom Seek Bar :

public class MinMaxSeekBar extends SeekBar implements SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener {
private OnMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener onMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener = null;
private int intMaxValue = 100;
private int intPrgress = 0;
private int minPrgress = 0;


public int getIntMaxValue() {
    return intMaxValue;
}

public void setIntMaxValue(int intMaxValue) {
    this.intMaxValue = intMaxValue;
    int middle = getMiddle(intMaxValue, minPrgress);
    super.setMax(middle);
}

public int getIntPrgress() {
    return intPrgress;
}

public void setIntPrgress(int intPrgress) {
    this.intPrgress = intPrgress;
}

public int getMinPrgress() {
    return minPrgress;
}

public void setMinPrgress(int minPrgress) {
    this.minPrgress = minPrgress;
    int middle = getMiddle(intMaxValue, minPrgress);
    super.setMax(middle);
}

private int getMiddle(int floatMaxValue, int minPrgress) {
    int v = floatMaxValue - minPrgress;
    return v;
}

public MinMaxSeekBar(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
    this.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(this);
}

public MinMaxSeekBar(Context context) {
    super(context);
    this.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(this);
}

@Override
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int i, boolean b) {
    intPrgress = minPrgress + i;
    onMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener.onMinMaxSeekProgressChanged(seekBar, intPrgress, b);
}

@Override
public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
    onMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener.onStartTrackingTouch(seekBar);

}

@Override
public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
    onMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener.onStopTrackingTouch(seekBar);
}

public static interface OnMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener {
    public void onMinMaxSeekProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int i, boolean b);

    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar);

    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar);
}

public void setOnIntegerSeekBarChangeListener(OnMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener floatListener) {
    this.onMinMaxSeekBarChangeListener = floatListener;
}
}

This class contin method public void setMin(int minPrgress) for setting minimum value of Seek Bar This class contin method public void setMax(int maxPrgress) for setting maximum value of Seek Bar
