XP Progress Chunks

umm... im not sure what you mean, perhaps you can be a bit more specific and maybe give some screenshot links?

if by xp progress-bar chunks you mean to have it look like its in segments, all you have to do is create one segment, add a strip of magic pink to one side however wide you want the space between segments to be, and then set the sizing margins to 0 on left and right, then use tile as the sizing setting.

Hi Halluci
Thanx for your reply. I'll try and clarify what I mean, and see if I can add some pics!

I do mean the segment version of the progress bar, yes. I've got the single segment and it has the magic pink stripe down the left side. Didn't know the sizing margins had to be zero so I changed that, but it doesn't seem to have helped.

Here is the segment background I want to use:


And here is the segment chunk:


The background is 8 pixels wide, the segment is 7 wide with a one pixel magic pink stripe down the left side. The sizing margins of the background are 1,1 left and right & 0,0 top and bottom.
In the "XP Chunk - Horizontal" section in SkS, "Chunk Size" is 7 and "Chunk Gap" is -1.

This is how I want it to look (faked in PSP7):


This is how it shows in the SkS preview window:


But it looks like this in the button visibility test window:




Whoops, just noticed I had the chunk stretched and not tiled.
Um, not much difference though:


Seems to be that SkS thinks the chunk is wider than it really is...


Any use to you?

Wow, those images actually got uploaded!

Wierd!

Vertical chunk size was 10, horizontal size was 7. Changing vertical size to 7 as well made it work.

Perhaps both horz and vert chunk sizes have to be the same...


Oh well, it works now....

glad you figured it out

Lookin' good!!!!!!!!!
