I was wondering, is it possible getting Variables "ZipOverallProgress" and "ZipOverallProgress" to work as simple progressbar ?
I see them in Variables tab within Debugger, but can't use them.
Also, how to make it when TextEntry object gets to the end of available characters to input (limit input to) to automatically go to next TexyEntry in line when grouped ?

Regarding your second enquiry ...
Also, how to make it when TextEntry object gets to the end of available characters to input (limit input to) to automatically go to next TexyEntry in line when grouped ?
In the TextChange event, you can enquire about the length of the variable assigned to this object ... if it exceeds your desired maximum size, set the focus to the next desired object e.g. ...
StrLen "[TextEntry1]" "[TextEntry1Size]" If "[TextEntry1Size" ">" "250" FocusObject "TextEntry2" EndifWould that work for you ?

I searched the Help file for ZipOverall and there was no match.
What was the context of your attempt to use them ? ... perhaps they only exist during the time that a Zip/UnZip is happening.

Yeah they appear only while command is running, wanted to make a progressbar visible

I am assuming you are talking about using the TrackBar Tool; if so, in order to suppress user changes, you may have to Disable this object ... I am not sure if the display will change when a tool is disabled.
An alternate method might be to have a simple Rectangle with a coloured background ... and a Timer object, whose Interval code adjusts the width of the Rectangle based on the values of the variable you are talking about.
If you can post a large enough zip file (perhaps one that takes 15 seconds or more to unzip), I can do some testing with it; please also tell us about the actual command you are using in your App.

I wanted to do atleast simple 0-100% Simple Text object in custom window , i have one with fixed txt that opens and close it self when operation is complete, depending on success or failure, but if possible to make 0-100%, why not :)
Command doing simple archiving of access databases (ZipFiles "[PubDir]Backups\backup_[DayNum]_[MonthNum]_[Year]_[Hour]_[Minute].zip" "[PubDir]" "*.mdb" "setup[#13]backup" "0" "password" "AES_256" "[ZipReturn]") and when this command is running, Debugger shows 3 variables ZipOverallProgress, ZipFileInProgress and ZipReturn. Last one can be used.
Just get bunch of files, compress them in one and then use for testing,ca 100mb, that is what i did at first.
Im not a progammer so i do what i think of with usually simple commands, im (re)building myself accounting app because existing apps on market are too expensive or not usable for my work.
-EDIT
I dont know why and how, but when i saved my project to a new file it worked, just use [ZipFileInProgress] and [ZipOverallProgress] as usual in SimpleText.
I will try to make graphical progressbar. On to the next idea :D
Trackbar could be perfect for Progressbar if Thumb style size could be variable

If you can get by without a plugin, it is considered better to do without one in most cases. However, if you find it easier with plugins, you might want to take a look at these:
asGauge 2.0 (Andrey Solodyankin)
hpwUtility 2.16 (Hans-Peter Wickern)
FileUtils (Drazen Glojnaric, Marije Ljolje)
lgaFileSys (Leif G. Andersson)
tmCoolProgBar 1.00 (Alberto Meyer, TechMedia)
tmWIIProgress 1.01 (Alberto Meyer, TechMedia)
NeoObjects 1.0.6 (David Esperalta)
There may be others that I don't know about.

Do I have your permission to include it under the "Resources" menu?
Thank you!

Good time! Of course, publish it! A link to the library of plugins and functions is available on my online course in the “Resources” section.
But it is not complete and a significant part of the plugins there have Russian localization. I will try to collect versions in the original languages in the future and add them there.
