 // add your custom text formatter by using the ValueTextFormatter interface
 bar.setValueTextFormatter(...);
            
 bar.setValue(800f); // display a value
 
 // or animate from a specific value to a specific value
 bar.animate(from, to, animationDuration);
            
 bar.setValueBarSelectionListener(...); // add a listener for callbacks when touching
