Prog_Bar Frequently Asked Questions
Answers
Is it possible to create a progress bar which increases but has a counter which decreases? This would be useful to show how much of a task remains to be completed.
No problem. The method used involves some visual trickery, but is not difficult. The example shown here was created by switching the foreground and background colours, and then setting the bar to grow to the left. The bar is full at the start, and then decreases in value, but since the background is the dominant colour it appears to grow.
