vertical progressbar? [RESOLVED]

[joeframbach]

is it possible to have a progressbar 'progress' from 0 at the bottom to 100 at the top? if not, then i'll make myself a little funtion algorithm thingy that fills a picBox...

u can use the old progress bar...otherwise u'll have to make ur own one

the old progressbar? i dont have vb6 or anything...

Try putting the maximum as 0 and the minimum as 100.

i'm having unrelated XP install problems so i removed .NET...
it works for now, maybe i did something wrong with the install, so i'll look over that sometime, but until then no vb for me...

i worked on this at school during lunch, here's what i did:
i made a panel with height=0 and backgroundColor=blue
i made an invisible picBox and did Send to Back, put it behing the panel
the picbox represents the progressbar and the panel represents the progress
to change the progress, i did this:

pseudo-pseudocode:------------------------------------------------
panel.height=value*picbox.height/max
panel.location.Y=(picbox.location.Y+picbox.height)-value*picbox.height/max
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

its not the best, but it does a pretty good job for what i need it for
