extends `AFProgressbar`

| Kind | Name | Signature | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| var | `Dot Value`State | `float` | — |
| var | `Interp Speed Dot`Style | `float` | — |
| var | `Color Dot`Color | `ST_Color_Definition` | — |
| fn | `CreateMaterial`Material | `(Theme: BP_PDA_Theme, Desktop: bool, out Material: MaterialInstanceDynamic)` | Returns the dynamic material instance the bar is drawn with, given the theme and the desktop flag to choose between variants. Empty here; each bar shape overrides it, and without an override the theme pass sets an empty brush. |
| event | `SetDotValue` | `(DotValue: float)` | — |
| event | `DotValueTick` | `()` | — |
| event | `WidgetElement_UpdateTheme`Style | `(Theme: BP_PDA_Theme, Desktop: bool)` | Called on every element of a widget tree at start-up and again each time a new theme is applied, carrying the theme and the desktop flag. Implement it for anything that reads colours, fonts or metrics; it runs after Initiate, so content already exists by then. |
