About

Slide Objects is a Public Domain HyperCard 2.x stack by Ben Lawson (benl@resunix.ri.sickkids.on.ca) that supplies a HyperTalk function called slide(). The function mimics sliding controls, such as the Sound control panel's volume slider, using ordinary HyperCard buttons or fields as the moving element.What it providesA reusable slide() handler that can be dropped into any HyperCard stack to add draggable slider widgets without needing an XCMD or external resource.ConfigurationThe function accepts horizontal or vertical orientation and returns an integer value representing the slider's position, which the calling stack can then process further.DistributionReleased as a DropStuff 3.5.1 archive wrapped in BinHex 4.0, posted to Info-Mac in the cards (crd) category as slide-objects-10.hqx.ContactThe author invited comments and suggestions at benl@sickkids.on.ca, reflecting the stack's role as a small developer-oriented utility rather than a finished game.Note on namingDespite the catalog tagline of "sliding-tile puzzle," the BinHex header makes clear this is a slider-control HyperTalk helper, not a 15-puzzle.
