I wrote the following code:

Manipulate[HorizontalGauge[Dynamic[x], {0, range}], {range, 5, 10}]

I want to plot a HorizontalGauge with dynamic range, but the marker of the HorizontalGauge does not respond to dragging, I could only click on the axis to change value of x, how to fix it? enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ TrackedSymbols :> {range} will fix the problem with dragging it, but it is unlikely to work for what you want to do. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Thanks, it works if it's wrapped with Manipulate[], but what if there is no Manipulate, just HorizontalGauge[], and "range" is a value varying with another function, i wrote "Dynamic[range]", but it didn't work. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ i add a picture to explain what i meant, if i change the value of "range" by the Slider[], the HorizontalGauge dosn't work when i drag it. $\endgroup$

Slider[Dynamic[range], {5, 50}]

  • $\begingroup$ Thanks, TrackedSymbols is one of my problems, i found out another, i put the calculation of "range" in the Graphics[] which controlled by Dynamic[x], now it's solved. $\endgroup$
