also let me see if i'm understanding you right. since my gauge is at 261, with 1 there is no need to make any of the b gauges (as to if the gauge was 260, then i would need the b gauges)

Not what was meant. What I was saying was in your 100x you have it set to 261 the full width of the gauge. The x is the cover part snipped from the A so it should only be as long as the cover needed from start to where the first change occurs.

The math is right. I'm new to this but correct me if im wrong but i'm almost sure that you can not code with decimal numbers... therefore leaving me to round down/up (30% of 261 = 78.3 or 78


correct no decimals, But if the first part is 78 the second part needs to be 183

If gauge b is not needed then each A gauge would be normal size...right? If this is so, it would seem like the easier way to go on coding the color change gauges...

No , the bs are still needed the b is the actual part of the gauge that counts down, the A is the cover part that has been cut down using x

still trying to understand... I guess what is really confusing me is that there is so many diff ways to code this and i don't have a full understanding of coding in XML, everything that i've done has be trial and error with some learning

Its a hard process to grasp but once you get the code in your head you can do anything with it. I am by no means a xml wizard and have no formal training, I am totally self taught with a lil help from a few people here at the site.I have a very good grasp on this though may not convey it clearly so be patient and we will get you through this.

Something else I just noticed...You have your original gauge(which is going to be the last gauge in this setup set to green, that is not the color you want it is it? And then you have all your parts for 60 and all your parts for 100 the same color. Change those and see what you get. the original bar should be the color you want to show last...the 15%-0, then just need three bars to get you the rest of the way.
