tobi95 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) when i create a progress control in default style, i get a segmented bar in win xp. in win7 it is always smooth. $PBS_VERTICAL style works with win7, and i get a marquee effect with style=8. but is it possible to get the original progress bar with segments in win7 ?thx in advance t.(example script is the SampleControls.au3 in autoit examples directory) Edited April 16, 2012 by tobi95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 You may have to turn off theme support for the progressbar control: Func _ControlSetTheme($iControl = -1) Local $aReturn = DllCall("UxTheme.dll", "int", "SetWindowTheme", "hwnd", GUICtrlGetHandle($iControl), "wstr", 0, "wstr", 0) If @error Then Return SetError(1, 1, 0) Return $aReturn[0] EndFunc ;==>_ControlSetTheme Or, you may have to make sure that you're not using the $PBS_SMOOTH variable for style parameter. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

tobi95 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 hmm thanx but no doesn't change anything. the uxthemes have to be turned off in winxp to enable a smooth ($PBS_SMOOTH) progress bar. but i want a segmented progress bar (default style) in win7. i do not use $PBS_SMOOTH style. it seems win7 always draws smooth bars.

BrewManNH Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I don't think you can do it without some kind of user made version of the progress bar, the native Vista/7 progress bar doesn't seem to allow that without changing the theme, i.e. skinning the GUI. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

tobi95 Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 yes, this is true. it's not so complicated to create a selfmade segmented one. good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
