Scrollbar - Izzy

[joewski]

Hey nice work Vortex2,

Just some coments,

- I was wondering if you could make it so when the vertical button is checked/unchecked the width and height are swapped as well. That way it would be quick and easy to clone the scrollbar to creat a horizontal bar. Plus I recon it would look better.
- Some events, suggestions "is max" "is min"
- Also will there be any chance colour control properties, actions & expression?
- Transparancy effects any possibility in the future?
- Finally rotation, imagine a scrollbar for isometic games, any possibility? Maybe even only 45°.
- Is this windows based, cos can you change the style of the buttons, like on top of each other?

Thanks Vortex2.

Joe.

[]hey, i was just playing around with active x controls and i noticed that the scroll bar object doesnt have a pause

does it work with other people?

the only thing about using a active x is that will it work on every computer? [/]

I just loaded the MFA and it says I don't have the activex scrollbar 2.0 - then it just names the frame as "Deleted frame" and its empty <img src="/center/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Hmm... that's a bug, it shouldn't continue loading the application, I'll fix it.

Well I got a message saying "Would you like to continue loading the application?" and I clicked Yes :P

Such stylizations are impossible becuase it is the standard windows control. The only way I could do such things is to make it owner drawn but that is a can of worms that I dont really feel like opening :P.

Yeah I suspected that about the stylisation.

What about the vertical horizontal switch swapping the width and height values when toggled, possible?

I have found a bug, if I make this :

On scroll
&gt; Set counter to EScrollVal

Test, and move the scrollbar to the maximum, the counter will show 91 and not 100 (max) <img src="/center/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Your page size is probably set to 9 / 10

Page size = how much the bar itself represents, so a big page size makes a big bar, but makes the maximum scroll position smaller.

I think Vortex left out the Visibility Actions. I can't hide the scrollbar lol <img src="/center/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

You can at edittime but not at runtime currently. I will add that for the final version.
