The <span class="emphasis"><em>update policy</em></span> of a <tt class="literal">Range</tt> widget defines at what points during
user interaction it will change the <tt class="literal">value</tt> field of its
<tt class="literal">Gtk::Adjustment</tt> and emit the <tt class="literal">value_changed</tt> signal. The update policies, set with the <tt class="literal">set_update_policy()</tt> method, are:

</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>
<tt class="literal">Gtk::UPDATE_CONTINUOUS</tt> - This is the default. The
<tt class="literal">value_changed</tt> signal is emitted continuously, i.e. whenever the
slider is moved by even the tiniest amount.
</p></li><li><p>
<tt class="literal">Gtk::UPDATE_DISCONTINUOUS</tt> - The <tt class="literal">value_changed</tt> signal is
only emitted once the slider has stopped moving and the user has
released the mouse button.
</p></li><li><p>
<tt class="literal">Gtk::UPDATE_DELAYED</tt> - The <tt class="literal">value_changed</tt> signal is emitted
when the user releases the mouse button, or if the slider stops moving
for a short period of time.
</p></li></ul></div><p>
