DWWvolume

This is an adaption of the volume control from my dwwsys. I know there is a lot of others, but none do all this:
huge range of volumes
real-time update (updates even if a different program or hardware changes the volume)
vertical or horizontal orientation, both directions
customisable - range of bar lengths and you choose the font and colour
mute function
use the speaker symbol to move it (no need for ctrl)

Sorry, i really am not a designer and have little ability on that front. I might give it another go, or if anyone wants to provide a new one...

Sorry, i have been busy with other RL things recently.
The current state is that it auto hides the bar when you move away from it. I intend to have a preference for that in the next version.

It is also untested by me on Apple, so if anyone could let me know...

Future release:
- auto hide preference
- when auto hide on and another program changes the volume, the bar will popup f… More

It would be great if this widget had the option to NOT allow other applications to adjust the volume--keeping my AV Workstation calibrated with external hardware.

err, you click the bar and it changes the volume depending on where you click the bar. The range of values is huge, somewhere between about 100 and 200 depending on your choice of length.
The other point is that if you change the volume elsewhere (e.g. media keyboard buttons, other volume control software) the volume will also update here.
