statusBar


Recommended Posts

hello,

i am using the MSComctlLib.IStatusBar, to create a status bar for an application. i would like to place an image (dynamically, i know you can place an image using the statusBar properties via the front panel) and progress bar in panels of the status bar. has anyone done this? if so, could you please show an example. all i can figure (vb code examples) is i have to use the loadPicture function to place an image in the status bar, but am unsure how to go about that. is their a good resource for activeX programming in labVIEW.

thanks,

robert

michael,

hello and thanks for the response. i agree, a status bar isn't much more then a collection of string/numeric indicators or even controls. with the proper attributes and spacing, it can look just like a "windows" status bar. i like the activeX status bar for its built in features like the time, date, caps lock and num lock. as it is i have a progress bar and multicolored status indicator in string indicators "next" to the status bar so that they look like they belong to the status bar. i thought it would be nice to incorporate those features into the status bar i am using. again, if anybody has insight on how to do this, i would be interested in how it was done.

thanks,

robert
