R3vo 2652 Posted January 10, 2016 I get the counter from 0 to 100 % in ~46 secs Then if I do it again without restarting the scenario, I get 20sec ???!!! 0.01 x 200 is ~ 2 seconds, keep in mind that sleep is not 100% accurate. If you want it to take longer, then increase the counter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybercoco 16 Posted January 10, 2016 This code lasts longer than expected. I would like a total duration of 20 sec (the duration of the animation played at the same time). How ? with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetTextColor [0.4,0.804,0,1]; }; _counter = 200; for "_i" from 0 to _counter do { (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition (_i/_counter); //hintSilent format ["%1%2", _i * 100 /_counter, "%"]; with uiNamespace do { x = safezoneX + 0 * safezoneW; y = safezoneY + 0 * safezoneH; w = safezoneW * 0.8; h = safezoneH * 0.8; my_awesome_text = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscStructuredText", -1]; my_awesome_text ctrlSetPosition [x,y,w,h]; my_awesome_text ctrlCommit 0; my_awesome_text ctrlSetStructuredText parseText format["%1%2", round(_i * 100 /_counter), "%"]; }; sleep 0.1; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_text"); }; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar"); Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R3vo 2652 Posted January 10, 2016 with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetTextColor [0.4,0.804,0,1]; }; _counter = 200; _startTime = time; for "_i" from 1 to _counter do { (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition (_i/_counter); hintSilent format ["%1%2", _i * 100 /_counter, "%"]; // debugg sleep 0.1; // interval }; _time = time - _startTime; hintSilent format ["Time: %1",_time]; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar"); I added another line to show you the time it takes. Sleep becomes really unreliable the higher the counter number is. I'd try to reduce the counter and increase the sleep time. Though that will cause the progress bar to appear more laggy. You'd need to make workaround for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

R3vo 2652 Posted January 10, 2016 Well, I thought you tested his aswell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybercoco 16 Posted January 10, 2016 I'm saying that because his code doesn't utilise the sleep cmmand. So it won't be desync,and will be 20 sec, right ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
R3vo 2652 Posted January 10, 2016 Yeah, I looked at larrow snippet and it should be exactly 20 seconds. Extremly clever what larrow did there, took me a few seconds to figure it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybercoco 16 Posted January 11, 2016 Here it is : with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; // that's where it begins !

Is he using time has the interval for the loop ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Larrow 2801 Posted January 12, 2016 Quite frankly, i can't understand how he did it ! Is he using time has the interval for the loop ? Yes. This [ time, time + 20 ] is the start and end, so now(time) end in 20 seconds from now. Then onEachFrame it works out much time has passed and converts it to a 0-1 value.. _progress = linearConversion[ _start, _end, time, 0, 1 ]; So where is time currently between start and end as a range of 0-1. Maybe it would look clearer if written like this.. start = time; lastFor = 20; onEachFrame { _currentPos = time - start; _progress = _currentPos / lastFor; (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition _progress; if ( _progress > 1 ) then { //Remove OEF as we have reached the end onEachFrame {}; }; }; but instead is done in a stacked event handler so as not to destroy any other OEFs that maybe running.

cybercoco 16 Posted January 15, 2016 1°) Is it supposed to delete itself after 20 sec ? (Because it doesn't...) 2°) I've tried changing the size of the bar with some modif, but they don't work : with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame", { params[ "_start", "_end" ]; _progress = linearConversion[ _start, _end, time, 0, 5 ]; // here (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition _progress; if ( _progress > 5 ) then { //and there [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame" ] call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler; }; }, [ time, time + 20 ] ] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; }; Also tried with ctrlSetScale my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetScale 2; But it has no effect on the bar !

R3vo 2652 Posted January 15, 2016 1.) It's not 2.) Use my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; after every command like ctrlSetScale or ctrlSetPosition (which you can also use to resize) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybercoco 16 Posted January 15, 2016 1°) // What's the use of : call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler // Made it worked with : ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar"); ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2°) ctrlSetScale with ctrlCommit works great, thanks ! my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; after every command like ctrlSetScale or ctrlSetPosition (which you can also use to resize) You mean resizing with ctrlSetPosition ?

R3vo 2652 Posted January 15, 2016 call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler It removes the "onEachFrame" eventHandler, which would otherwise continue to run even after the progress bar is filled. You mean resizing with ctrlSetPosition ? Like that ? yes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybercoco 16 Posted January 15, 2016 You mean resizing with ctrlSetPosition ? Like that ? yes! All right ! I tried to output the % process, it works with hint format. However it doesn't work with another dialog (an "embeded" one showing the text). with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame", { params[ "_start", "_end" ]; _progress = linearConversion[ _start, _end, time, 0, 1 ]; (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition _progress; //hintsilent format ["%1%2", round(100*_progress), "%"]; // Not working !!! with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_text = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscStructuredText", -1]; my_awesome_text ctrlSetPosition [0,0,1,0.1]; my_awesome_text ctrlCommit 0; my_awesome_text ctrlSetStructuredText parseText format ["%1%2", round(100*_progress), "%"]; }; sleep 0.1; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_text"); if ( _progress > 1 ) then { [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame" ] call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar"); hint "FINISHED"; }; }, [ time, time + 20 ] ] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; }; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cybercoco 16 Posted January 16, 2016 Another test working, but I can't manage to delete the my_Awesome_Text with ctrlDelete ... with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame", { params[ "_start", "_end" ]; _progress = linearConversion[ _start, _end, time, 0, 1 ]; (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition _progress; with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_text = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscStructuredText", -1]; my_awesome_text ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; //ctrlSetPosition [0,0,1,0.1]; //[0.5,0.1]; // my_awesome_text ctrlCommit 0; my_awesome_text ctrlSetStructuredText parseText format["%1%2", round(100*_progress), "%"]; }; // ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_text"); if ( _progress > 1 ) then { [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame" ] call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar"); hint "FINISHED"; }; }, [ time, time + 20 ] ] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; }; Basically, this code outputs a % value and repeat the progress to 100%, the values overlay on each other !

Larrow 2801 Posted January 17, 2016 No need to create and destroy a UI element every frame. Just make it once like you do the progress bar, update its text each frame and delete it once finished. with uiNamespace do { my_awesome_progressBar = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscProgress", -1]; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_progressBar progressSetPosition 0; my_awesome_progressBar ctrlCommit 0; my_awesome_text = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscStructuredText", -1]; my_awesome_text ctrlSetPosition [ 0.345, 0.3 ]; my_awesome_text ctrlCommit 0; }; [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame", { params[ "_start", "_end" ]; _progress = linearConversion[ _start, _end, time, 0, 1 ]; (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar") progressSetPosition _progress; (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_text") ctrlSetStructuredText parseText format["%1%2", round(100*_progress), "%"]; if ( _progress > 1 ) then { [ "TIMER", "onEachFrame" ] call BIS_fnc_removeStackedEventHandler; ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_progressBar"); ctrlDelete (uiNamespace getVariable "my_awesome_text"); hint "FINISHED"; }; }, [ time, time + 20 ] ] call BIS_fnc_addStackedEventHandler; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
