Using JSlider to create a date picker?

I want to implement date picker using JSlider. The user should be able to use the slider to freely choose between two previously known dates. I saw such examples:

But I want to do the same using only one slider. The minimum distance between two points (tick) should be one day. Any tips on how to implement this?

If you want to have a slider with min = 1.1.2012 and max = 10.1.2012, just create a slider with min = 0 and max = the number of days between them, then add the selected number in 1.1.2012.

, 10.1.2012 10 , min = 0 max = 9. .

  • It is difficult to get all dates as marks on the slider due to the limited width. This means that the user must interpolate / count to select the correct date.
  • If you adhere to the slider approach, at least consider adding a text box. Even an uneditable text field that displays the selected date will be a big improvement over the slider (see Clause 2).
