Controlling Animations with a slider

[NineTails]

I'm trying to tie up my animation to a slider. When I play, the slider length should be that of my animation and when I drag the slider, it should play the appropriate part of the animation.

However, I'm having some real issues doing this.

This is what I have so far

1.         public AnimationClip animation1;
2.         public UISlider slider;
3.  
4.         // Use this for initialization
5.         void Start ()
6.         {
7.                 anim.clip = animation1;
8.                 anim.Play();
9.                 float animationLength = slider.value * animation1.length;
10.                 slider.value = animationLength;
11.        
12.         }

But this is wrong. Could someone please help me out?

Slider value ranges from 0 to 1.

Im also having a problem with linking animation with ui slider, im new to coding all together.

I know using the gui in unity you use this on the object that has the animation, but what would you do for the ngui slider?

1. public class slidertest : MonoBehaviour {
2.  
3.         private AnimationState myanim;
4.         public float hSliderValue = 0.0F;
5.  
6.         // Use this for initialization
7.         void Start () {
8.  
9.                 myanim = animation ["anim"];
10.        
11.         }
12.        
13.         // Update is called once per frame
14.         void Update () {
15.        
16.         }
17.  
18.         void LateUpdate(){
19.                 myanim.time = hSliderValue;
20.                 myanim.enabled = true;
21.  
22.                 animation.Sample ();
23.                 myanim.enabled = false;
24.  
25.                 }
26.  
27.  
28.         void OnGUI() {
29.                 hSliderValue = GUI.HorizontalSlider(new Rect(25, 25, 100, 30), hSliderValue, 0.0F, myanim.length);
30.         }
31. }
32.

You want your slider to control your animation position?

1. myanim.normalizedTime = slider.value;
