The divisions are 4 ticks to a mid mark, 5 mids to a Major mark, therfore:
1 major mark = 20 minor ticks.

What I'm trying to get is 5 ticks to mid mark, 4 mids to major. Still 20 ticks, but one of the mid marks falls in the center of the major. Then I can read the bar at a glance, and get it within a couple of tenths of a percent. I can then focus on the small ticks if I want exact number.
An example. 93.7% is 9 bubbles plus 3.7%. With the existing setup, that's about one blue major plus about 4/5 of the next. So 4/5 of 2% is 1.6.
With 5 ticks to the mid, 4 mids to a major, 3.7% will be a bit easier to see. Blue major is 2%, 3/4 of another is about 1.5%. Each quarter is half a percent, making it easier to tell at a glance.
I guess it's just me. Like I said, I'm having a hard time putting it in words.
I didn't mention how much I like the UI. I enjoy the mellow feel of the blue borders, and I recommend it to everyone I know. Especially crafters. I only offer this as a suggestion.
How is the tick setup put in? Is it in a scalable graphic file or is it built by the ui from property values? If it's property values, tell me where they are and I'll make my own.
