Need an native looking IOS progress bar

Post by DR White » Mon Aug 01, 2016 5:21 pm

I need an native looking IOS progress bar that works well with LC 8.
I have searched the forum board, but could not find anything.

Does anybody have an example of one that they would like to share?

Thanks,

David

One thing you could try (I have done similar things before) is to use an animated GIF rather than an actual scrollbar object. If you find an animated GIF of a full progress bar complete with animation, then use a graphic object to hide the portion that you don't want visible (e.g: the last 30% of the GIF if you are 70% of the way through), you should be able to reproduce a fairly accurate progress bar.
