<summary>A widget which indicates progress visually.</summary>
<remarks>
<para>The <see cref="T:Gtk.ProgressBar" /> is typically used to display the progress of a long running operation.
It provides a visual clue that processing is underway.
The <see cref="T:Gtk.ProgressBar" /> can be used in two different modes: percentage mode and activity mode.</para>
<para>When an application can determine how much work needs to take place (e.g. read a fixed number of bytes from a file) and can monitor its progress,
it can use the <see cref="T:Gtk.ProgressBar" /> in percentage mode and the user sees a growing bar indicating the percentage of the work that has been completed.
In this mode, the application is required to set <see cref="P:Gtk.ProgressBar.Fraction" /> periodically to update the progress bar.</para>
<para>When an application has no accurate way of knowing the amount of work to do, it can use the <see cref="T:Gtk.ProgressBar" /> in activity mode, which shows activity by a block moving back and forth within the progress area.
In this mode, the application is required to call <see cref="M:Gtk.ProgressBar.Pulse()" /> perodically to update the progress bar.</para>
<para>There is quite a bit of flexibility provided to control the appearance of the <see cref="T:Gtk.ProgressBar" />.
Functions are provided to control the orientation of the bar, optional text can be displayed along with the bar, and the step size used in activity mode can be set.</para>
<para>
The following example show how percentage mode works
</para>
<example>
<code lang="C#">
using System;
using Gtk;
namespace TestGtkAlone
{
public class TestProgress
{
static Gtk.ProgressBar PBar;
static void Main()
{
Gtk.Application.Init();
Gtk.Window WinPBar = new Window("Test Progress bar - Percentage mode");
Gtk.HBox HContainer = new Gtk.HBox(false, 2);
PBar = new ProgressBar();
Gtk.Button ButtonStart = new Gtk.Button("Start Progress");
HContainer.Add(PBar);
HContainer.Add(ButtonStart);
ButtonStart.Clicked += new EventHandler(ButtonStart_Clicked);
WinPBar.Add(HContainer);
WinPBar.ShowAll();
Gtk.Application.Run();
}
public static void ButtonStart_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
PBar.Adjustment.Lower = 0;
PBar.Adjustment.Upper = 1000;
while (PBar.Adjustment.Value &lt; PBar.Adjustment.Upper) {
PBar.Adjustment.Value+=1;
}
}
}
}
