Double / Doublelinear

[kjaft]

hi folks,
wiriting some AETemplates for my own nodes I found that my standard double-attributes get only a input field by default - no silder at all. Looking at some maya-node's attrs (getAttr -type) you can see that those attributes that also have a slider are of the type doubleLinear. You can add an attribute of that type via MEL (http://localhost:4448/Maya6.5/en\_US/Commands/addAttr.html) but in the API nothing like that exists for the e.g. NumerericAttribute.
Any hints?

cheers

ok, found out now that doubleLinear is equivalent to the MFnUnitAttribute::kDistance.

Unfortunately stil no sliders...

Does your attriibute specify or suggest some bounds to the data?
