Hello,

obviously the scale widget's API does not allow to set the number of
tick markers which is a quite usual feature. The number of ticks seem to
be platform dependent (win32: OS.TBS_AUTOTICKS). This looks ugly for a
non-multiple setMaximum and limits the graphical opportunities for the
programmer.

I've checked the source for win32 and photon. Adding this feature for at
least these two plattforms should be a work of minutes. OSX and
Motif/GTK should offer a similar opportunity.

Is it possible to add this feature in the near future?

regards,
Wolfram

Please add a bugzilla feature request. Since we are API frozen until 3.1,
nothing will happen for a while. Thanks.
