texture rectangle not working

[grim]

The pysfml site didn't really have anything that showed this being used and looking at the C++ version didn't really help either.  What I'm trying to do is draw a full progress bar onto the screen but have the texture rectangle set to only show part of it to represent what data has been loaded.  What I have right now is this:

self.loadBar.texture_rectangle = sf.Rectangle((0,0),(relativeSize, 20))

But it doesn't work, it still shows the whole thing.  Am I not using it right?

(Sorry for not being able to provide now a full working example.)

What I do:

o_texture = sfml.Texture.from_file(s_file)                       # Full image texture loaded from disk
o_sprite = sfml.Sprite(o_texture)                                # Creating a sprite from the texture
o_sprite.texture_rectangle = sfml.Rectangle((10, 10), (50, 30))  # "cropping" only the rectangle I want from the full texture

Of course this is a basic example and you should do it with proper coding to keep your texture "alive".

Hope it helps.

LoadBar is a rectangle shape. My texture is loaded in a resource manager. It loads the textire just fine, the problem is the texture rectangle isnt changing its size.

I think I'm beginning to see what it's doing.  After playing with values in the texture_rectangle, it appears to just be taking what the texture rectangle is selecting and just stretching it out across the whole rectangle shape.

That's it indeed.
Reduce the width of your rectangle shape.
