It will work even if you don't know the details, the same as sprites work even when not knowing all the internal details. You can even aproximate the gradient feature you want with n NakedBarMetter s side by side in x axis, each with his own color, as childs of a NakedBarMetterMulticolor that will receive the on_update_value from the game and send appropriate messages to the childs. Someone dares a try ? :) claudio -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cocos2d discuss" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
