Hi everyone!

New to the forum, and in need of some help as I start my journey into developing user friendly Dashboards.

Im currently working on a simple Wellness tracker dashboard.
It uses a scroll bar (0 to 3) and is linked to a cell which then displaces the data in a radar chart, comparing various KPI.

I want to make this dashboard more friendly, and wanted to know if theres anyway i can change the appearance of the scroll bar?
I've looked around the settings but havent been able to find options for this.
Would i need to use macros or any kind of code to change this to a more slick and simple slider bar?

Thanks for your help!

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
This changes the colors on ActiveX scrollbars

VBA Code:
Sub Macro1()
  Dim Sht As Worksheet
  Dim Obj As Object
  Dim Cntrl As Variant
  
  Set Sht = ActiveSheet
  Set Obj = Sht.OLEObjects("ScrollBar1")
    
  Obj.Object.BackColor = RGB(0, 102, 255)
  Obj.Object.ForeColor = RGB(137, 137, 173)
  
  
End Sub
