StatusBar
This control enables you to create a status bar.
Control Styles
These control styles are available when creating a StatusBar control. Remember that the general styles disabled, group, notheme, tabstop and transparent apply to all DCX controls.
grip | Status bar displays a sizing grip.
noparentalign | Status isn't auto-positioned when dialog's size changes.
noresize | Status isn't auto-resized when dialog's size changes
tooltips | Status bar has tooltips (tooltips only work for cells that have no text or cells where the text does not fit in the cell width).
top | The statusbar is auto-positioned at top of dialog window.
/xdid flags
Control commands are input to the control with the /xdid command.
/xdid -k
This command lets you set the status bar background color.
Syntax: | /xdid -k [DNAME] [ID] [RGB]
Example: | /xdid -k dcx 4 $rgb(255,0,0)
Note. You can use -1 for RGB to revert to default color.
/xdid -l
This command lets you set the status bar cell divisions. Every value givin is the position of the cell's right border. For example, if you have a 600 pixel width statusbar, you could use the values 200 400 -1 to get 3 200 pixel wide cells. If a cell has the value -1 for right border position, the cell will extend to the right edge of the statusbar control.
Syntax: | /xdid -l [DNAME] [ID] [POS] (POS POS ...)
Example: | /xdid -l dcx 4 200 400 -1
