Hi i'm wanting to make a health bar in a derma frame but don't know if there is a way to draw on the frame or not.

[QUOTE=thejjokerr;22017445][URL]http://wiki.garrysmod.com/?title=DColorCube[/URL] can be used for this.[/QUOTE]

I think he means your actual Health in the derma frame, not creating a custom one IN a derma frame.

Would this be useful?

Thanks Busymonkey i think thats just what i need

[Busymonkey]

Yea, you're gonna have to figure out how to make the HUD into it, yourself though, cause I have no idea.

actually, wouldnt it just be this?

function PANEL:PaintOver()
        draw.RoundedBox(3, X, Y, 200, 100, Color(51, 58, 51, 255))
	draw.SimpleText(client:Health() .. "%", "ScoreboardText", 100, 50, Color(86, 104, 86, 255), 0, 0)
end

( X, Y ) being the position cordinates, obviously.

ya i know how to make a health bar already just i wanted it on Derma to be able and move it.

DermaThingi.Paint = function()
		draw.RoundedBox(3, X, Y, 200, 100, Color(51, 58, 51, 255))
		draw.SimpleText(client:Health() .. "%", "ScoreboardText", 100, 50, Color(86, 104, 86, 255), 0, 0)
    end
end

Shouldn't it be LocalPlayer():Health() ?

[??????]

[QUOTE=sintwin;22026593]Shouldn't it be LocalPlayer():Health() ?[/QUOTE]

No, it's better to just define client as LocalPlayer()

Kk, didn't know that :).

Yeah it just saves you having to keep typing out LocalPlayer()

[Busymonkey]

What's the correct way to define?

Isent it?

local client = LocalPlayer()

or is it the other way around?

[sp]I both the function and the snippet from the Wiki and combined them[/sp]

[sintwin]

That seems about right yeah, although I have never done that before I just do LocalPlayer()

[HeavyMtl123]

To define you do
[lua]local <insert name you want to use instead of LocalPlayer()> = LocalPlayer()[/lua]
