You can display circular zoom buttons on the left and right side of the slider control by using the SetZoomButtons method. By default, the slider is horizontal, the left zoom button displays a minus sign and the right zoom button displays a plus sign.

The SetZoomIncrement method defines the increment to add to or subtract from the current position when a user clicks the zoom buttons.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to use various methods in the CMFCRibbonSlider class to set the properties of the slider. The example shows how to construct a CMFCRibbonSlider object, display zoom buttons, set the current position of the slider control, and set the range of values for the slider control.

// Create a ribbon slider.
    CMFCRibbonSlider* ribbonSlider = new CMFCRibbonSlider();
    // Set the various properties of the slider.
    ribbonSlider->SetZoomButtons(true);
    ribbonSlider->SetPos(50, TRUE);
    ribbonSlider->SetRange(0, 100);
    // Add the ribbon slider to the Favorites panel. 
    // CMFCRibbonPanel* pPanelFavorites
    pPanelFavorites->Add(ribbonSlider);
