Playerinfo stuff
Hey all.
Man I love this EQUI stuff. I just made a few posts within 5 mins.
Anyway, I just wanted to share 2 things I found out after a few minutes of brainbashing. Number 1, the HP gauge for your character has your name and the HP bar attatched to it, not just the HP bar. And Number 2, you can delete all the little graphical elements and just leave in the "Fill" attribute. What this does is you get a bar by itself that will shrink and shrink until it disappears, which is when you are dead. Number 3, the HP bar is bounded by the GaugeOffsetX, GaugeOffsetY, and the bottom and right bounds of the Gauge Size attribute.

BTW, i mean by this, negative values in locations and offsets etc...
Number 1:
<Location>
<X>3</X>
<Y>-25</Y>
</Location>

OK, so let's see if I understand this.
We have, in effect, a size changing rectangle.
GaugeOffsetX, GaugeOffsetY = Top left corner (x,y) position. Fixed.
<X>3</X> = Width of the bar.
<Y>-25</Y> = Length of the bar? or adjustment from 'norm'?. Will have to experiment here
As the value of the guage (ie hps or whatever) changes, the <Y> value grows or shrinks accordingly, giving a longer or shorter bar. Left side is static (as determined by the GuageOffset values) but the right edge moves the length of the bar left/right. Reguardless of the size, the bar moves from 100% to 0%, so a guage value of 50% will always be represented by a half length bar?
In short:
To make the bar wider/fatter: Increase <x>
To make the bar longer: decrease <y>
To move the bar: adjust GuageOffset
Would that be about right?

well i tried just increasing the <SIZE> <CX> values for the gauge in the playerinfo window but the guage does not expand to fill that width... just stays the normal width...
about to give up for a while cause i can't seem to properly make a custom gauge that displays right... and can't get std gauge to expand in length/width sigh...
