🚀 go-pugleaf

I am working on an application that needs a numeric slider, ie. sliding
object which changes a floating point value. Unfortunately, IV does not
have this. Another person here came across the same problem and has written
one. Why was this forgotten from IV and will it be added?

The second part of this posting concerns trying to extend ibuild to
understand these new objects. My conclusion is that it can't be done, apart
from build an Unidraw class and compiling it into ibuild. The problem is
that ibuild does not let you access basic classes such as Interactor and
State. I can get ibuild to handle the drawing of the slider (eg. put a
frame and a bitmap on the canvas), but even if I did this, future users
would have to set up the state and call-back functions by hand. 

Any suggestions? My suggestion is that if ibuild added a tool for an
Interactor and for State, I could subclass them and put them all together
in a monoscene, and I would be there.
