Making a Float, not Int slider with Qt Designer UI?

[Horganovski]

After some looking around I learned that Qt does not currently support Float sliders, so I used MEL to divide the slider output value by 100 and then fed that back into a text field beside the slider. So now the user changes the slider in whole numbers from 0 to 100 but the output reads 0 - 1, so even though the slider is still working in integers the user gets the impression they are dealing with floats. You can do the same thing in reverse too by having a procedure that gets called if the user types a value into the text field which then updates the slider accordingly.

It works fine, but a little tedious to set up, hopefully in the future Qt integration will be more complete and this will be simpler to do.

Cheers,
