+ * gimp_procedure_dialog_get_scale_entry:

+ * @property: name of the int property to build a combo for. It must be
+ *            a property of the #GimpProcedure @dialog has been created
+ *            for.
+ * @factor:   a display factor for the range shown by the widget.
+ *
+ * Creates a new #GimpScaleEntry for @property which must necessarily be
+ * an integer or double property.
+ * This can be used instead of gimp_procedure_dialog_get_widget() in
+ * particular if you want to tweak the display factor. A typical example
+ * is showing a [0.0, 1.0] range as [0.0, 100.0] instead (@factor = 100.0).
+ *
+ * If a widget has already been created for this procedure, it will be
+ * returned instead (whatever its actual widget type).
+ *
+ * Returns: (transfer none): the #GtkWidget representing @property. The
+ *                           object belongs to @dialog and must not be
+ *                           freed.
