Slider and the Output Minimum setting

Timo's icon

Hey all,

why is it, that in the attached patch the Output minimum gets added to the output of the [slider].
Example: I set the minimum to 1 and send a "500" message to the slider... the output will be 501.
If I set the slider to 500 manually, the output is 500.

Is that expected behaviour?

All the best
Timo

Yes, it's expected, as per the Reference.
When you "set manually to 500", you actually "set manually to 499 and the minimum is added to it, so what you see as an output is 500".

Thank you!
But it's weird, right? Or am I not seeing some advantage in this behaviour?
