Hi John, Still a little unclear exactly what you need. I guess something like a bandwidth usage monitor graph, with a needle at the right-hand edge pointing at the current position. I think I started work on one of those.
Anyway, here are some styles I've already done before which might be useful. do http://anton.wildit.net.au/rebol/gui/demo-rotate-knob.r do http://anton.wildit.net.au/rebol/gui/demo-percent-progress.r The percent-progress style can be resized in the demo to be a vertical one. Maybe it's close to what you need ? Anton. > We have backups that run every day. So I'll figure out the number that > needs to be run today and put it in a dbase.
