How to partially fill a shape...

[Jeff Engel]

Is there a way to fill a shape based on percentage or other metric. Example
would be to show disk usage using a cylinder and filling it only 50%.

if you're at v2007 professional it can be done with data graphics, with
other versions there may be some code involved.

Hi Jeff,
Have a look at the stencil in
http://www.pherber.com/meter.zip

the shape has a custom property to change the %age fill.
It's really 2 shapes grouped together, the top one's height being the
%age of the height on the other.

Will do, thanks!

This should work just fine. Thanks again.
