Question

I hope this is a simple problem.

I have a seekbar that I want to limit the range it can be set to. This range can change depending on other factors (the values of other seekbars, etc.)

The seekbar is a simple 0 to 100 range and defines a percentage. I need this value to be a minimum which can range from 0% (normal seekbar operation) to a higher value (let’s say 50% for example).

The code does its calculation and determines the minimum value depending on other variables.

When I drag the seekbar below this threshold I want it to reset its value to that minimum. Here’s some sample code

seek6.setOnTouchListener( new OnTouchListener() { 

@Override
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP) {        
        int CurrentLevel = seek6.getProgress();
        if (CurrentLevel < 30) CurrentLevel = 30;
        seek6.setProgress(CurrentLevel);
            }

    return false;
    }   
     });

So in this sample if I drag below 30, the value will be set back up to 30.

If I drag above 30 everything is fine. If I drag below the 30 mark, then the seekbar GetValue() is coming back as 30, but the seekbar shows the lower value.

For example, if I drag it all the way down to 0 the return value is 30, but it shows 0 on screen.

How can I get the seekbar to re-display at the 30 position automatically?

I’ve tried to change the focus, update the seekbar from another method. Nothing has worked so far.

Any ideas?

I have my answer after many gruelling hours of searching.

seek6.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new OnSeekBarChangeListener(){
    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar){               
        // TODO My code goes here

        int CurrentLevel = seek6.getProgress();
        if(CurrentLevel < 30)
            CurrentLevel = 30;
        seek6.setProgress(CurrentLevel);

    }

    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar){}

    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean fromUser){}
});

Thanks to anyone who has been researching this anyway.
