Progress bar....not 100 limit?

[Skrip]

I have a script that scans a file for how many lines, and I need it to set the limit to the amount of lines, but it doesn't seem to work..

$lines = _FileCountLines($wordlist)
GUICtrlSetLimit($Progress1, $lines, 0)
GUICtrlSetData($Progress1, $line)

What is the value of $line?

[Skrip]

It is within a loop. It increases by 1 each time, until it hits the end of the file ($line = $lines)

A progressbar is designed to display a progress (DOH) in percents. You can only use a progressbar to display that, you can't use it to display a value. Example of progressbar use below:

$total = 10000

For $current = 1 to 10000

GUICtrlSetData($progressBar, ($current / $total) * 100)

Sleep(1)

Next

I can't get it to work

Is it the same thing as your problem?

Dim $array[5000]
GUICreate("hello",300,200)
GUICtrlCreateProgress(10,10,280,180)
GUICtrlSetLimit(-1,Ubound($array),0)
GUISetState()
For $i=0 To Ubound($array)-1
    sleep(50)
    GUICtrlSetData(-1,$i)
Next
; The progress bar is already filled up, long time ago
MsgBox(0,"","")

Monocres, instead of setting the total as value for the progressbar, set the total value devided by the maximum value multiplied by 100. A progressbar is to display PERCENT, not any other amount. GUICtrlSetLimit has nothing to do with progressbars.

Works. Thank you.

That's what I usually do, because I never got GUICtrlSetLimit to work.

Now I know why

Yes, GUICtrlSetLimit() function works with: List, Input/Edit, Slider and UpDown controls.
