Vertical Gauges for GUI

[Akaya]

I'm having trouble adding a vertical gauge to my GUI. I want it to track my experience percentage. I was hoping someone might have a vertical gauge script I could look at. Here's a piece of my GUI:

The green bar with the percentage is where I need the vertical gauge.

For vertical gauges, you have to offset the Y of the foreground label when you offset its height.

Code: [show] | [select all] lua

local vert = {
  x = 0,
  y = 0,
  width = 10,
  height = 100,
  r = 50,
  g = 255,
  b = 50,
}

createLabel( "vert_back", vert.x, vert.y, vert.width, vert.height, 1 )
setBackgroundColor( "vert_back", vert.r * 0.5, vert.g * 0.5, vert.b * 0.5, 255 )

createLabel( "vert_front", vert.x, vert.y, vert.width, vert.height, 1 )
setBackgroundColor( "vert_front", vert.r, vert.g, vert.b, 255 )

function updateVert (current_stat, max_stat)
  local scalar = current_stat / max_stat
  if scalar > 1 then
    scalar = 1
  end

  resizeWindow( "vert_front", vert.width, vert.height * scalar )
  moveWindow( "vert_front", vert.x, vert.y + (vert.height - (vert.height * scalar)) )
end

Hope that helps!

Alright! I got it working! Thanks so much. That script worked wonders.

Here's a screenshot of it in action. It's being used to track my experience.

Ooooo, this is what I am trying to do with mine, but set up for bards. Is this useig geyser or vysor

[Akaya]

Neither actually. Though both Vyzor and Geyser would make the process much easier.

Vertical gauges are being integrated into normal gauge function with the next release, making it very simple regardless of how you decide to do it.
