GtkProgressBar

a widget which indicates progress visually.

|
The #GtkProgressBar is typically used to display the progress of a long
|
|
running operation. It provides a visual clue that processing
|
|
is underway. The #GtkProgressBar 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 #GtkProgressBar 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 call
|
|
either the gtk_progress_set_percentage() or gtk_progress_set_value()
|
|
functions 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 #GtkProgressBar in activity mode. In this mode
|
|
the progress bar shows activity by a block moving back and forth within
|
|
the progress area.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
There is quite a bit of flexibility provided to control the appearance
|
|
of the #GtkProgressBar. Functions are provided to control the
|
|
orientation of the bar, optional text which can be displayed along with
|
|
the bar, and the style in which the bar grows.
