Is it possible to fill the extreme top and bottom of a thermometer?

Is it possible to fill the extreme top and bottom of a thermometer? I would like to have 0 at the bottom of the thermometer instead of the bottom of the straight part. Is there a way to customize the thermometer to do this?

I dont think so. Although I tried anyway 😃

A decent work around would be to use a tank control in its place (next to the thermometer on the palette). The tank is basically the same thing but it has flat tops and bottoms instead of the rounded ends. Just place one on the interface and make it real skinny...

The best looking thermometer is the old classic one. here is a copy of it. Also if you want you can customize any control to look however you want. Try it.

Thanks for the replies but I need a "pill" shaped vessel that will fill from the bottom to the top. It can not be squared off (tank) and can not have a bowl at the bottom (Classic thermometer).

It's a kluge, but here is one way, grouped two thermometers, selected fill from bottom and fill from top for each and did some creative coloring.
