Title: Help With Striped ProgressBar
Post by: uncholowapo on June 02, 2010, 04:50:59 pm
Ok well, I have this image of the progress bar:

And I want it to stay consistant when ever it expands like this:

But when I insert it into styler, I get it elongated and ugly:

I used the tile option but it still stretches it out.

I'm still fairly new so please be nice :)

In Vista and higher tiled progress bars no longer work. Sorry.

Well that's a shame. Thanks for the info :)

You can fake it. Make the progress bar just blue and have the stripes in the move overlay. Since it too can't tile you'll need to make a very wide image.

Interesting. I'll try it out when I get home from work.
