Basically, this control is a "progress circle," rather than a progress bar. It enables the programmer to take a rather high amount of ustomization into a "progress circle" that will help to enhance the interface of their program.
Unique Features:
- Ultra-fast graph rendering
- Was tested on a 166 mHz Pentium with 32mb RAM, 1mb video memory, on Windows 95a, on a 400x400 graph.
- The result of the above test was that the circle was drawn almost instantaneously: It took an average of 80-100 ticks (milliseconds) for each test! Now talk about speed!
- Primitive but powerful customization
- 7 different Fill Styles
- 16.7 million Fill & Outline Colors (plus system colors!)
- 2 types of graphs drawn (experimental)
You MUST note, however, that even though I have tested it rather thoroughly for bugs, it is hard to cure bugs between XP and 95 (the two platforms I tested it on). You have any trouble, explain the problem, and explain how you fixed it, or if you need help. I hope you enjoy it!
