Request for change/feature to Template:Progress meter

Request:

Making the {{progress meter}} template work properly with infoboxes with regards to text alignment?

Reason:

When the template is used in an infobox, the text for current/goal are both aligned left, making it unreadable. See 2010_Copiapó_mining_accident#Plan_C for an example. - Penwhale | ^{dance in the air and follow his steps} 10:43, 7 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The changes have been made. Unfortunately, I noticed the syntax for that created template made use of lots of absolute positioning and tables to achieve its look. As the creator of the template, I took it upon myself to fix this, and now the syntax is much more readable, modifiable, and just a slight more customizable(grads is a new parameter). Since I got rid of most of the absolute-positioning, it now behaves correctly when inside a container, such as an info box. — Dæ dαlus^{+ Contribs} 06:50, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
