Creating a progress bar !?

gapworks

Hi all,

once again i´m stuck with a project :( . i Need to create a "progress bar" which also displays the percentage over a certain period of time. Which is not fixed yet! (could be up to 30 min)

Any ideas where to start, apart from creating 100 pics in a counter?

thanx for your help

Try this...f1bd1c-loading.izz

Change the envelope generator timings and it should all stay in sync.... I think.

haha we must have both seen this at the same time @Michel.

Your's is a bit more polished than mine I was going to my progress bar in a frame or add values but I am supposed to be working! haha.

Similar technique I see... I forgot about the text formatter - much better way to add the % on the end. Good work :)

Skulpture

Nice :) Could be a handy little user actor ;)

@ Michel, but his last value is also 00% :( i have not managed to change this.

@gapworks
It's fixed, had to change the max digits to the left to 3 (it was 2) in the text formatter actor. Re-download the actor to get the fixed version.

hahaha. It seems you do have time to play around :-)

crystalhorizon

you guys are funny ;-)

Skulpture

Hahaha :)

BTW: my last patch has a little error it forgets the text colour when you go back into the scene.... not sure why.

the text formatter actor is one of great power that i am slow to understand.

@Skulpture

The dot of the color maker actor does change but not the output. If you put a trigger delay after the enter scene trigger set to 0.4 or higher it does change to green. But I leave it to you to upload the change :-)
