Status bar in user interface

[AlyssaK]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking at creating a status bar to display information. I'm using the following code as a starting point, however there is a syntax error! Its as really basic problem I know.

statusBar = viz.addTextbox()
statusBar.translate(0.928,0.98)

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 11, in ?
File "main.py", line 5, in ?
from gui import GUI
File "gui.py", line 68
statusBar = viz.addTextbox()
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

If you have alternate code please post a reply or have found where im going wrong.

Thanks!!!

I have updated the code and the same syntax error exists

statusbox = viz.addTextbox()
statusbox.length(2)
statusbox.setPosition(.5,.8)
statusbox.overflow(viz.OVERFLOW_GROW)

Can you post the code for your entire script using the tags? The error you are getting is either caused by the previous line or bad indentation.

Thanks for the reply.

It was bad indentation. Solved by Cntrl A and Alt 'T' (Tabify region).
