Is there any way to get color to show on a native scrollbar (used as a progress bar for a download) on mobile? It show up with background fill black with barely visible thumbnail blue going across, changing the color in IDE has no effect on mobile.
I think there is a mobile control, but as far I can tell , it always in relation to scrolling some other object, not a "standalone" progress bar. The native scroll bar it pretty "ugly" and I would like the make the UI bit close to what people are used to seeing. [Side note: My goodness! I am using a function from the days of Scott Raney, found in the first MetaCard IDE, 20 years ago... and it still works Ha! How's that for xTalk viability! ] But, how I would upgrade to modern UI? This was always so simple: *command*showProgress pURL, pStatus *-- this is the status callback message which gets called regularly during the download* *-- pStatus will show some initialisation messages, then* *-- loading,bytesReceived,bytesTotal* *-- using a graphical progress bar instead* *-- ths first time this is called, find the total number of bytes that are to be downloaded* *-- use this info to set the span of the progress bar* *-- wait until the download info is being received* *if* thenumberofitemsinpStatus = 3*then* *if* thevisibleofscrollbar"Progressbar"= false*then* *put*thelastitemofpStatus intotTotalBytes *set*thestartValueofscrollbar"Progressbar"to0 *set*theendValueofscrollbar"Progressbar"totTotalBytes *show*scrollbar"Progressbar" *end* *if* *set*thethumbPositionofscrollbar"Progressbar"toitem2ofpStatus *end* *if* *-- better text information* *if* thenumberofitemsinpStatus = 3*then* *put*item2ofpStatus intotBytesReceived *put*item3ofpStatus intotTotalBytes *-- this gives very large numbers that are not easily read, so convert to KB* *put*tBytesReceived div1024intotKBreceived *put*tTotalBytes div1024intotTotalKB *-- calculate speed* *put*theseconds- sDownloadStart intotElapsedSeconds *if* tElapsedSeconds = 0*then* *-- make sure we don't divide by zero at the start* *put*"unknown"intotKBperSecond *else* *put*round(tKBreceived / tElapsedSeconds, 1) intotKBperSecond *end* *if* *put*"Received (KB): "& tab& tKBreceived &cr& "Of Total (KB: "& tab& tTotalKB & cr&\ "At KB/sec: "& tab& tKBperSecond intofld"ProgressField" *end* *if* *end*showProgress BR _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
