In digging a bit deeper, I think you are right. It does seem to have some weird behavior when the "range" is from a negative number to a positive number. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it does act a bit strange. Doesn't seem to like "0" at all.balala wrote: Ok, thanks anyway.

Could be. I'll have to see what the code monkeys think.balala wrote: Could be this a bug?

Re: Trailing Zeros
In further digging, I actually don't think it properly handles a "range" from a negative number to a positive number at all...balala wrote:Ok, thanks.
If you define a "range" (MinValue / MaxValue) that is from a negative number to a positive number, say
MinValue=-10
MaxValue=10
Then logically -10 would be 0%, 0 would be 50%, and 10 would be 100%.
The Line meter just doesn't seem to be able to handle this. It might be as much as "design limitation" as it is a "bug".
P.S. We have now completely hijacked and trashed the original poster's thread. That is entirely my fault for not really understanding what he was getting at to begin with.

The only weird thing is that your previous code works well.jsmorley wrote:In further digging, I actually don't think it properly handles a "range" from a negative number to a positive number at all...

Re: Trailing Zeros
It actually doesn't. It was misleading. It looked like it worked right, but if you change the MinValue and MaxValue so it should never hit the top or bottom, it still does.balala wrote: The only weird thing is that your previous code works well.

Re: Trailing Zeros
Yes. The Bar meter seems to handle this fine, but not the Line meter. The logic should be identical in both cases, but it just isn't.balala wrote:Strange...

Re: Trailing Zeros
To be honest even i don't know what i want yet, i'm just bouncing ideas and i will decide based on the results.
The main idea would be for the user to see if the price-percentage went up or down since the last update. And relatively how big was that value change.
I can point you to this little graph:
