Description

The Fl_Value_Input widget displays a numeric value. The user can click in the text field and edit it - there is in fact a hidden Fl_Input widget with type(FL_FLOAT_INPUT) or type(FL_INT_INPUT) in there - and when they hit return or tab the value updates to what they typed and the callback is done.

If step() is non-zero, the user can also drag the mouse across the object and thus slide the value. The left button moves one step() per pixel, the middle by 10 * step(), and the right button by 100 * step(). It is therefore impossible to select text by dragging across it, although clicking can still move the insertion cursor.

If step() is non-zero and integral, then the range of numbers are limited to integers instead of floating point values.
