About Progress bar (GUIProgressControl ) (1 Viewer)

[lopez.tuparles]

Hi,
I am looking for information about the GUIProgressControl, here is an example of coding that doesen't do anything.
In fact, i'am trying to fill a progressbar, could you help me.
Thank's

In XML:

<control>
<type>progress</type>
<description>CPU progress control</description>
<id>11</id>
<posX>144</posX>
<posY>88</posY>
<width>272</width>
<height>16</height>
<dimColor>ff0000ff</dimColor>
<animation effect="fade" time="250" reversible="false" pulse="false">WindowOpen</animation>
<animation effect="fade" time="500" reversible="false" pulse="false">WindowClose</animation>
<lefttexture>osd_progress_left.png</lefttexture>
<texturebg>progress_back.png</texturebg>
<midtexture>osd_progress_mid.png</midtexture>
<righttexture>osd_progress_right.png</righttexture>
</control>

In Coda:

[SkinControlAttribute(11)]
        protected GUIProgressControl guiProgressCpu = null;

public override void Process()
{
             guiProgressCpu.Percentage = 50;
             // That doesen't Do Anything :-( 
}

Well, I've done it with two superposed "Image" , and playing with 'Width' propertie.
It looks like a progress bar, but is anyone know how a true progress bar works.

Take a look at mediaportal trunk\mediaportal\WindowPlugins\GUIMusic\GUICoverArtGrabberProgress.cs in the MP sourcecode. It should work like lopez.tuparles code. Insert some debugging points or logging to check if the function actually is called...

Hi takeuchie,

have a look at this plugin I wrote recently to figure out the various controls. It just shows most of the controls available in MediaPortal and how to use them.

It's not finished yet but it has GUIProgressControl (progress) and GUITVProgressControl (tvprogress) in it and should help you in figuring out how to use these controls...

Because I already published the plugin on the website: MEDIAPORTAL - free media center - GuiControlsDemo
