Help dxProgress

[Jacobob14]

how I can make a progress bar with some dxrectangles?

something like this

[Ryancit2]

Yes, you'll need a good knowledge of basic mathematics to get client's resolution, then get center, then divide center with number of rectangles and then draw the rectanles.

or, i don't know if its better way but you can create a guiLable in bottom-center of client's screen, then draw rectangle images inside it using images, then set image color one by one on regular intervals.

[Jacobob14]

please you give me one example?

Just a simple progress that you can start from

local sX,sY = guiGetScreenSize() 
local progX = 200 
local progY = 25 
local moveSpeed = 3 -- per frame 
local prog = 0 
  
  
function render() 
    if prog >= progX then 
    removeEventHandler("onClientRender",root,render) 
    triggerEvent("onClientProgressFinish",localPlayer) 
    end 
  
    dxDrawRectangle((sX/2)-(progX/2)-1,(sY/2)-(progY/2)-1,progX+2,progY+2,tocolor(255,255,255,170)) -- background 
  
    prog = math.min(prog+moveSpeed,progX) -- move the progress 
    dxDrawRectangle((sX/2)-(progX/2),(sY/2)-(progY/2),prog,progY,tocolor(50,50,50,255)) -- progress 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender",root,render)

but what I want is making a dxprogress

but whit several rectangles

something like this

This is client-sided, not server-side ...

@toni012899, you not know read, my friend ?

^^

The meta is wrong.

[Walid]

You must add

type = "client" 

in your meta file

[#RooTs]

^^

The meta is wrong.

more is already added

type = "client" 

[Walid]

more is already added

type = "client" 

Are you sure post you meta here.

client.lua

client.lua: 1: attempt to call global 'guiGetScreenSize' ( a nil value )

Yes, I know. Lel, as the guy above said "post your meta here". I saw that it's named client.lua. If it can't call the "guiGetScreenSize" then you has set it as server-side script in the meta. Also the name of the file doesn't mean anything.

end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, drawProgressBars ); 

Done sth like this, didn't test it properly, but should work.

element dxCreateProgressBar ( int x, int y, int width,  int height, int n ) 
bool dxProgressBarSetProgress ( element ProgressBar, int n ) -- 0 to 1 

local p = dxCreateProgressBar ( 0, 0, 500, 50, 4 ); 
dxProgressBarSetProgress ( p, 0.5 );
