    Private vb3 As ValueBar
    Private t1 As Timer
End Sub
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    Activity.LoadLayout("Layout1")

    vb1.Color = Colors.Red
    vb1.OverlayColor = Colors.Blue
    vb1.BackgroundColor = Colors.LightGray

        vb3.animateUp(rndNum,1000)
    Else
        Dim rndNum As Int = Rnd(0, 50)
        vb3.animateDown(rndNum,1000)
    End If
End Sub
Sub Activity_Resume

End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)

End Sub

This library is Donationware. You can download the library, you can test the library. But if you want to USE the library in your App you need to Donate for it.
Please click here to donate for my work to write the wrapper (You can donate any amount you want )


Please consider to donate to the Original Author of this Library, Philip Jahoda, too! See Donatebutton here.

I just wrote the Wrapper for this Library so it can be used in our beloved B4A

 

[MarcoRome]

Ehy DonManfred you are unleashed with the library .
Great job

 

[DonManfred]

Updated to V1.0.1
Forgot the OnValueSelected event
Library can be found on #1

 

[itgirl]

i was working on a poll app and that's will be handy, thanks

I tried to use an increment that is decimal say .5, but it only jumps 1 at a time:

vb2.Textformat = "0.0"
    vb2.setMinMax(0,10)
    vb2.Interval = .5

1. Thank you @DomManfred. It is amazing what you have been putting out lately in terms of libraries.
2. I hope you will not desert us like some that created some libraries and are no longer supporting them or no longer members of the forum.
3. Do you have one link that brings up exclusively all you libraries in one place?
4. Do you have plans to create a library for the Date picker as you did for the time picker?
5. I hope you are better looking than your avatar.

1. Thank you @DomManfred. It is amazing what you have been putting out lately in terms of libraries.

you are welcome

2. I hope you will not desert us like some that created some libraries and are no longer supporting them or no longer members of the forum.

I hope that too

3. Do you have one link that brings up exclusively all you libraries in one place?

I got a login to the wiki lately... Will do an overview there when i have time

4. Do you have plans to create a library for the Date picker as you did for the time picker?

A Datepicker to select date with an circular Clock? Maybe i misunderstood
Do you find a suiteable here?

5. I hope you are better looking than your avatar.

Insignificant

    vb2.setMinMax(0,10)
    vb2.animate(0,7.5,10000)

i used this and this counts in 0.1 steps... I really dont have understand the system here too actually

See post #1. There is a library that you need to download and that you then have to add to your additional library folder.

Great value bar!

I have 3 questions.
1.) How to set the bar where the user cannot change the values by touching the bar after the bar is display?
2.) Can the text in the bar be rotated ?
3.) The colors that are define in the app are not the colors on the display?

Much thanks in advance

 

[DonManfred]

1. not possible
2. no
3. Not?
