  Hope someone finds it useful. Comments, suggestions, feature requests are welcome.
  
  Off-topic: I made this a question rather than a discussion by mistake, can a mod fix this?

  Forum doesnt allow it, however feel relaxed with such things (not an issue)

  wow, where were you couple of days ago. I just recently finished creating my own and wanted to publish it today
  
  Here's an example of mine: https://github.com/ar2rsawseen/Progressbar
  Additionally it has text and bar can be Gtween animated

  Wow... all I did was display a rectangle and change it's xScale on every frame. This appears to be much better at a glance.

  @ar2sawseen Wow yours looks much further along than mine. Nice work! I wanted to support gtweening but admittedly I'm just starting out with Gideros and decided to keep it simple. I was actually just checking out AceSlider, you've got lots of really useful code. I might even end up using yours
  
  @joelghill Thanks! Yea I just wanted something simple and re-useable. Hope you find it useful.
  
  @OZApps I considered that, wasn't sure it would work. I guess it would have! Is that code available? I only see the video.

  @ detour thank you for sharing your code...
  but do you know the code that when you click a button then the health bar increase to one. Like a score health bar,that after clicking the button the health bar increase until it reach to 100 % after clicking 100 times.

  @Gracille hey, sorry I missed this. Sounds like you want to use DT_Healthbar as a progress bar. It will work the same way, just bind a click event to a button that calls add(). Here's some quick and dirty pseudo-code:

  progress_bar = DT_Healthbar({ -- your options here max_value = 100 -- this bar is considered full if it has 100 points added to it })   -- click this 100 times and the health bar will be full add_button:addEventListener(Event.MOUSE_DOWN, function() progress_bar:add(1) end)

  @Gracille this is probably obvious but I thought I should mention that the bars start out full by default. You should call

  progress_bar:empty()

  to make the bar appear empty before you start adding to it.
