Conversion from boot screen

from Stardock Forums
Recently, I converted a bootscreen (one that uses ntoskernel) to a bootskin. It worked fine except for one thing, the progress bar. I have tried many different numerical entries in all the dimensional parameters, but can't get the progress "bubble" to stay within the confines of the bar. Here is the .ini file:

[BootSkin]
Type=16
Name = "BARBED WIRE"
Author = "DSLV"
Description = "On Any Given Day"
ProgressBar=Bitmap_4.bmp
ProgressBarX = 220
ProgressBarY = 330
ProgressBarWidth = 170
Screen=Bitmap_1.bmp

As it is now, the bubble travels a path wider than the bar.

Hey bachbeet; x and y are the start point of the bar travel area, top left.
barwidth is the distance it travels inside border.
Maybe this will help, it is from one of my boots



from .ini

ProgressBarX = 235
ProgressBarY = 236
ProgressBarWidth = 169

Thanks a bunch Cavan! You've always been very helpful and generous with sharing your knowledge. After trying several different values and previewing after each change, I got it to fit within the bar. In the meantime, I've converted other bootscreens and will play with those to make them fit. I'm first gona check the ini file which comes with the converted screen.
