I thought it might be a good idea to start a topic in which people can tell how they are going to use the new datatypes which are in uComponents. I'll start :).
Multi-Node Tree Picker:
- To select the images of a webshop product (using the media tree + thumbnail preview). - To select widgets (using widget topnode as startnode). - To select which nodes (and in which order) are in the menu of a website. - As a replacement of the content picker (if only 1 node can be selected, but that's not in v1.0)
Slider:
- To select the opacity of a div (between 0 and 1).
Well I'd like to hear other people their idea's :).
Since uComponents v1.0 is out I thought I might kick this topic a little :). Anyone else would like to tell what they are going to use uComponents for?
With the ToggleBox, I am using it as a general replacement for the Yes/No checkbox data-type. Functionally they work the same, but visually (for me) it is more appealing to have an "on/off switch".
For the Slider, even though I developed it - I can only see it being used when there is a need to quickly update the value - to save re-typing. For values like a price of a product, or similar.
Use for uComponents

? Slider ? Where is?
Hi Biagio,
When you create a new data-type, in the drop-down list for render controls, you should see one called "uComponents: Slider".
