mindstorm 8 Posted September 17, 2015 For a project I'm working on I wanted to draw a line on the GUI, it will be used on a geiger counter image for the needle (so it has to be able to change direction, a gui block wouldn't work I suppose). Thus far I haven't found a way to do so. DrawLine seems to be only usable on map controls. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/drawLine Even though I get the idea this guy managed to get it to work on the GUI: He might have made a invisible map control overlaying the GUI though, but no clue where to even start there. Another way would be to use drawLine3D but I highly doubt I could ever get that working decently with all the transitions. Any suggestions on how to approach this?

Greenfist 1863 Posted September 17, 2015 I don't think the drawline3d would work well as a meter needle. I'd go for a map with all colours defined as transparent and drawLine. If you have already done some dialogs, maps shouldn't be too difficult. You could also create a dialog with a moving 3D model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greenfist 1863 Posted September 17, 2015 You can try style=176 God damn it. I once tried to find a way to do it, and even came across someone saying it simply wasn't possible. So I just ended up making a map & drawline. This thing is even in the wiki, but I was just too blind to see it. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
